Clothing

Men and women alike usually wear shorts and shirts, although some women wear tennis dresses or skirts. The preferred color is white. It helps disguise the white shuttle­cock (seen against the backdrop of white clothing)—especially when a player is serving. While most clubs and tournaments allow the same kinds of clothing worn for tennis, some specify a particular type and color. It is wise to check with the director to determine local requirements.

Shirts usually are made of cotton because it has better perspiration-absorption qualities than synthetic fabrics. All clothing should allow you to stretch comfortably.
