5. Doubles Rules
 The server serves the shuttlecock from the right service court across
the court to the opponent that is diagonally across from the server. The
server has two serves to make this happen or else loses the serve.
 Only the opponent who is diagonally across from the server is allowed
to hit the shuttlecock on that play. If the opponent’s partner touches or
hits the shuttlecock, this is a fault and the serving team scores a point.
 When serving at the start of a Badminton game, the serve and receive
is from the right service court.
 When the serving side has scored an even number of points, serve and
receive from the right service court.
 When the serving side has scored an odd number of points, serve and
receive from the left service court.

Game Trivia
Sixteen feathers from the left wing of a goose are used to make professional
shuttlecocks. This gives the professional shuttlecocks a precise and standard
spin. By the way, no geese were harmed to produce the EastPoint® Badminton
shuttlecocks!
