To make it as easy as possible for you, we have divided the badminton racquets into main and sub categories. The main categories are classified according to the type of badminton player: children, beginners and advanced player.
Recreational badminton rackets
It is of course super difficult for a beginning badminton player to choose a racket that suits you well. Therefore, we have divided the badminton rackets for recreational players and beginners into 3 categories. As a starting badminton player or real recreational player it is wise to buy relatively basic rackets, because these players should mainly focus on improving their stroke technique, footwork, continuity and condition. With very innovative rackets with many different technologies, it is sometimes more difficult to master the basics. This is counterproductive. Moreover, these rackets are often much more expensive, and you have to be much more careful with them, because the materials used are more fragile.
Of course, there is also a middle ground in terms of special badminton rackets, with which a more experienced recreational player can make progress. These rackets are made of carbon, which makes them lighter and. Below, you can read more!
Children and starting badminton players
The robust steel & aluminum badminton rackets are especially suitable for younger children and the real starting badminton players. If you are not sure yet if you want to continue playing badminton and don't want to spend too much money in the beginning, you will end up in this class. Our expert recommends these rackets only for really young children, because they still need to develop their skills. Therefore, it can happen that a racket is smashed against the ground or that the rackets are used less sparingly. We advise older starting badminton players to choose at least a carbon shaft racket (more information can be found below).
These basic badminton racquets are also ideal if you want a racket to play outdoors, because they are affordable, robust, and it is less of a problem if they get damaged. That chance is generally greater outside than inside in the gymnasium.
Key features:
- Up to about 20 euros
- Robust materials
- Young children
Older children and beginners
The second step within the recreational target group is a racquet that is made of both Aluminum & carbon. In general, the racket blade is made of aluminum and the shaft is made of basic carbon. By basic carbon, we mean the simplest carbon type available. In recent years many different types of carbon have been developed and combined with other materials to make stronger, more flexible or even stiffer materials. But these types are incorporated into the more expensive rackets.
These rackets are suitable for children who have learned the basic principles of badminton or older children who are just starting or adults who are just starting. The major advantages of this type of racket are the higher quality materials. Carbon absorbs much more vibration than steel or aluminum, so you have less chance of injury. You will also be able to hit the shuttle with more precision. The last big advantage of carbon is its flexibility, which usually allows you to hit the shuttle further more easily. So it takes you much less strength and effort to hit the shuttle further back in the court, saving you energy.
Because of all the above benefits, these badminton racquets are longer to use if you are just starting to play badminton. To take the next step in learning the right technique and playing style, you do not have to buy a new racket right away. Partly because of the interesting price of approximately 30 Euros, it is more than worth it to invest a little more money in your first racket. You are definitely not going to regret this!
Key features:
- Up to approx. 30 euros
- Less vibration
- More flexible
- Longer usable
Older children and starting adults
The final category within the starting badminton rackets are the all-carbon/graphite variants. These rackets are suitable for the players who have a good technique and know what their strengths and weaknesses are. By choosing the right racket which matches your style of play, level and physical characteristics, you will be able to improve your game even more. Depending on your budget and wishes, you can invest more in your racket. Of course, quality, budget and special features go hand in hand.
One of the main advantages of a full carbon badminton racket is the shock absorption, which means even less vibrations affect your arm and shoulder. This results in even more accuracy and less chance of injuries. In addition, a carbon racket is also more flexible, which allows you to develop more power in your strokes. This allows you to push your opponent deep into the backfield and make the mistakes.
This is ideal for children and adults who already have the necessary experience and technique to play badminton. Be sure to get proper information from our expert if you have any doubts and want more advice!
Key features:
- Between 40 and 100 euros
- Improved shock absorption
- Suitable for a long time

Buy professional badminton rackets
Even for advanced or professional badminton players, it is sometimes difficult to choose exactly the right racket. After all, which badminton racket suits me? If you are going to buy new badminton rackets yourself, pay attention to a few important components and select your requirements in the category: ADVANCED badminton rackets.
- Choose a suitable flexibility
With a stiffer racket, you need more power and technique. If you don't have that much power, choose a flexible racket. Accuracy will be less. - The right balance
A defensive badminton player should choose a headlight racket. An attacking player prefers a head-heavy racket. All-round players choose an even-balanced frame. - Match your style of play with the weight
Do you play a lot at the net, do you double up a lot, are you injury-prone or just want to be very agile? Then a lighter badminton racket is recommended. Less weight = more manoeuvrability.
On the other hand, are you an offensive player, do you play a lot in the back court and are not injury prone? Buy a slightly heavier racket. More weight = more power. - Favourite badminton brand
