I just purchased an economic badminton set to start playing with my daughter. It contains: four rackets, two balls, a complete net, and... a PUMP! What's the pump is for?????

:confused:

for the valley ball you forgot to buy...

LMAO! You mean "volleyball"? :p This is a funny post. :D

Dejudicibus: what two balls did the badminton set come with? I assume the pump is for inflating the balls (if necessary).

maybe it's a beach badminton set and the pump is for the beach ball

Well, the two balls are just the traditional badminton balls. Not the kind of balls to be inflated at all! Why a volleyball should be included in a badminton set for four players???

But the beach ball is missing! :crying:

Seriously: the sent includes four rackets, two balls, a net and two four-pieces sticks for the net. By the way, each piece is only 40 cm, so the net should be at 1.6mt of height... isn't it too low for a badminton game?

Isn't it suppose to be shuttles or birds?!?! not balls!

That's not actual badminton...

Isn't it suppose to be shuttles or birds?!?! not balls!

I do not know what do you mean by shuttle or birds (I just know space shuttles and flying birds, the animals :) Sorry, English is not my first language. By ball I mean the traditional badminton "balls": half a ball with a conic net tail.

There no such term as "balls" in badminton. It is "shuttlecock"

Also referred as bird, bidie, or shuttle.

1.6m (5.2ft) poles is correct.

1.6m (5.2ft) poles is correct.
