VOLLEYBALL
Volleyball is a team sport in which two teams of six players are separated by a net. Each team tries to score points by grounding a ball on the other team's court under organized rules. It has been a part of the official program of the Summer Olympic Games since Tokyo 1964. Beach volleyball was introduced to the program at the Atlanta 1996 Summer Olympics.
BADMINTON
Badminton is a fast-paced, non-contact racquet sport played with racquets and a shuttlecock over a net, where the goal is to hit the shuttlecock so the opponent cannot return it. It is played by singles (one vs. one) or doubles (two vs. two) on a rectangular court, with points scored by landing the shuttlecock in the opponent's court or when they commit a fault.
TABLE TENNIS
TABLE TENNIS
Table tennis (also known as ping-pong) is a racket sport derived from tennis but distinguished by its playing surface being atop a stationary table, rather than the court on which players stand. Either individually or in teams of two, players take alternating turns returning a light, hollow ball over the table's net onto the opposing half of the court using small rackets until they fail to do so, which results in a point for the opponent.
TAEKWONDO
Taekwondo is a Korean martial art and combat sport known for its emphasis on high, powerful kicking techniques and rapid hand strikes. Translating to "the way of the foot and fist," it was developed in the mid-20th century by blending traditional Korean fighting styles with influences from foreign martial arts.
BASKETBALL
Basketball is a team sport in which two teams, most commonly of five players each, opposing one another on a rectangular court, compete with the primary objective of shooting a basketball (approximately 9.4 inches (24 cm) in diameter) through the defender's hoop (a basket 18 inches (46 cm) in diameter mounted 10 feet (3.05 m) high to a backboard at each end of the court), while preventing the opposing team from shooting through their own hoop.Page updated
