A shuttlecock is used to play badminton.
History has not recorded the individual that invented the game of badminton. However, around the first century, the Chinese played a game called Battledore and Shuttlecock. This was a game where a paddle was used to hit a shuttlecock back and forth. In the 1860s folks in India used to play a game they called Poona. This was similar to the game of Battledore and Shuttlecock but a net was added to the game. Poona became popular among the elite of England and the name was changed to badminton and the first official set of rules were drawn up in the 1870s.
