Xia Chuanshou

Shuttlecock kicking is one of the folk sports activities in China, and it is a simple fitness activity.

First of all, shuttlecock is easy to make. Just use a small piece of cloth, wrap a copper coin and a small goose feather tube with a cross at the lower end, and sew it with needle and thread to form the base; Then insert seven or eight chicken feathers into the upper end of the uncut goose feather tube. Chicken feathers should belong to roosters. They are long, beautiful and easy to kick. There are ready-made badminton in shops or booths, but its base is often rubber, which is elastic and has poor stability after heavy kicking.

Secondly, activities are easy to carry out. It doesn't have high requirements for the site, just a small flat open space, five or six square meters, three or four square meters, and the higher the technology, the wider the requirements for the site. I only need one square meter or even stand on the bench, and I can kick dozens of times.

Secondly, there are many kinds of kicking methods. You can compare the number of times, the time of continuous kicking and the mode of kicking. Here are some common kicking methods-

First, pure comparison of kicking techniques.

One foot landed and the other kicked. The foot touching the ground can move or not (commonly known as "piling"); The kicked ball can land or not (commonly known as "hanging"), which is often used before the official start of the game. Participants can kick in turn, and the winner is the one who kicks more continuously or finishes the task first. You can also "add pagodas", that is, the first person kicks once, the second person kicks twice ... and so on until one of them kicks "death". The "dead" can "throw hair" at the "living", that is, throw the shuttlecock to others by hand until others stop kicking the shuttlecock or you receive it. The game will start again.

Second, the pattern of playing both.

The most common is "jumping", that is, when throwing shuttlecock, both feet jump at the same time and kick with one foot. You can jump continuously or jump and kick at the same time. There is also "stealing", that is, one foot touches the ground and the other foot "sneaks away" from behind; "Ring", the foot jumps, one leg bends and the other leg kicks; "Beat up", two feet jump, one leg stretches forward and the other leg kicks; "Cut", jump up with your feet, cut scissors with your legs forward, and kick the shuttlecock with one foot. In addition, you can also deliberately kick with your back foot (note: some people are left-handed, and your right foot is your back foot), or kick with your feet alternately. ...

Finally, two playing methods of children's songs are introduced.

1, Li He, crooked, across the ocean

Sing eight words and kick them eight times in turn. Among them, when singing the five syllables of "inside, outside, floating, outside and crossing", kick with your right foot, kick with your back foot inward when singing "harmony", kick with your back foot outward when singing "turn" and make a jump when singing "sea". Turn around and see who plays more.

2. A pot bottom, two pot lids, three small handles, four-toothed chopsticks, five nails, six steamed dumplings, seven orchids, eight handfuls, nine noodles and ten dozen flowers.

Sing, kick and do an action. Let the shuttlecock fall in turn: first, straight hand; Second, on the back of the straight hand; Third, there are five fingers in a small handleless wine cup; Fourth, aim at two straight fingers (Chinese food); 5. On a clenched fist; Sixth, in the palm of your hand; Seven, fingers bent and stretched out on the "blue petals"; Eight, grab the hand; Nine, upturned cheeks; Ten, hop. Those who play more are also winners.

According to Ci Hai, kicking shuttlecock "has a good effect on moving joints, strengthening ligaments, developing agility and balance". I hope interested friends will come to play, and male and female lovers are more welcome to learn from each other here.

(Originally published in China Sports Daily on June 28th 1996) The first type is our common traditional shuttlecock. The height of shuttlecock is generally around 12 cm. The shuttlecock body is made of turkey feathers or carved feathers, and the plastic sheet is used as the base. So it looks more beautiful and has good elasticity. Shuttlecock vertical speed is not too limited. Fly up and down after kicking, and the moves are all controlled by yourself. There are no particularly difficult movements, so it is suitable for people of all ages.

The second type is the big shuttlecock, the shuttlecock body is mostly goose feather and rubber base, and the height is about 17- 18 cm. Different from the traditional shuttlecock, the big shuttlecock is relatively heavy and requires relatively strong skills. If it is a one-legged kick, there is more than 100 action. But in mass fitness, shuttlecock is more suitable for many people to exercise together. Everyone kicks, and I also kick. The kick is stronger, but the action is simple, which can not only exercise the leg strength, but also improve the flexibility of the body.
