    What's your favourite angle to watch a badminton game?

    I like to sit down behind the middle of the court looking down parallel to the alleys. But not from high up looking down like on TV because then it's hard to have perspective on the bird and players. Watching on TV, I prefer the overhead view.

    you mean the back alleys or the side alleys?

    ever wonder how it feels to watch the game from the umpire's seat?

    my fav location will be on the side of the court near the back. good perspective.

    the worst location imho is the TV/tennis angle. it compresses the field of view.

    I totally agree. TV angle doesn't or rarely show the actual angle of the flight path of the shuttlecock.
