What are the safety precautions in badminton competitions?

Badminton is one of the most well-known ball sports and many people can play it. Moreover, mastering badminton is not very difficult, so many people find it easy to get started. This has led to many situations where badminton is used for competitions. However, for the competition, everyone also needs to take certain safety measures. Then the campus will introduce some precautions to you.

1. Those who have the following conditions are prohibited from playing badminton: cold/fever/cough (playing badminton with a cold can easily cause myocarditis, and severe cases can lead to sudden death, there are precedents in Shanghai), trauma, drunkenness, asthma/hypertension/heart disease, etc.

2. You should eat at least 1 hour before exercise to allow enough time for digestion, so as not to put extra burden on the body during exercise and avoid negative effects on the digestive system.

3. Before exercise, you should be fully equipped with professional equipment. It is especially important to wear professional badminton shoes with special "anti-sprain design" to avoid possible sprains during exercise. If the competition venue is slippery (for example, wooden floors become tighter due to cold shrinkage in winter, resulting in reduced friction), it is recommended to wear newer professional badminton shoes to provide better grip.

4. Do enough warm-up activities before exercise, such as rotating your wrists, ankles, knees, and waist; and perform sufficient muscle stretching and expansion exercises, such as swinging your arms left and right/front and back/up and down/rotating, shrugging your shoulders, squatting with bent legs left and right, squatting with straight legs left and right, bending over, leaning back, leaning to the left and right sides, squatting and jumping, kicking with your legs raised, touching your buttocks with your heels, and sideways cross-stepping, etc. One part that is easily overlooked at this time is the neck. Please do the "M-shaped exercise" for your neck before exercise to make your neck more flexible, especially for golfers who have certain neck problems.

5. Before exercise, spray some musk spray on important parts (such as wrists, ankles, knees, lumbar spine, etc.) to help speed up blood circulation and nutrient delivery in important parts.
