Product Description
Product Description
Speedminton is a high-energy game representing a new dimension in extreme racquet sports that combines tennis, badminton, and racquetball. Easy to learn for beginners, many advanced players enjoy the complexity involved in its mastery. This game can be played anywhere by using the dimensions of a tennis court (although you don't need a net to play). Fun and portable like badminton yet Speedminton is an aerobic and competitive sport like racquetball.

Three different Speeders allow for different types of play:

  • Fun Speeder can be used by beginners or for recreational volleys on the beach or in a park.
  • Match Speeder is for fast and competitive play.
  • Night Speeder is modified so that a Speedlight can be inserted at the base.

The set includes:

  • Two Speedracquets made of high-quality, extruded aluminum for maximum durability
  • Three Speeders made from patented, aerodynamic materials, each for a different kind of play
  • Four Speedlights for up to three hours of after-dark play
  • One Speedbag for carrying portability
  • One Wind Ring for all-weather play
  • Eight cones for court markers
  • A Speedlight glows for up to three hours of after-dusk play. This type of play, called Blackminton, can be seen in parks in Berlin and across Europe. An Easy Court comes with the Speedminton set so competitive play can be set up anywhere.

Speedminton’s inventor, Bill Brandes, spent years perfecting the proprietary materials that went into the Speeders as well as the unique shape to the Speedminton racquet. In May 2001, three enthusiastic racquet sportsmen founded Speedminton GmbH in Germany. Their purpose was to broaden the marketing and sales of this entirely new sport--speed badminton. Today, only the cone-shaped appearance of the Speeder is reminiscent of badminton, as the Speedminton has taken on its own identity.
