Only badminton was introduced on me, since then. My father used to buy us a set of badminton racquets so that we can play badminton on free times. I don’t have any idea about tennis before.
I just started to have an idea about tennis when I watched a cool anime "Prince of Tennis" and my most favorite Taiwanese drama "It is started with a kiss" where the characters played tennis and I’m became avid fan of this sport. I admired the ways how to play it and it obviously has much difference from badminton. On tennis, I think, is harder and more challenging to play than badminton. Also, the ball of it was a bit harder to control. The thought of playing tennis bring excitement in my veins.
Mostly on summer, badminton is one of the most played games on our country. Streets usually filled with adolescents or kids played badminton. Badminton can be done freely without its net, unlike Tennis (As I observed), it can’t be played outside its court. Undeniably, this two sports were psychologically became social status. Playing badminton is more affordable than tennis, because its gears and stuff can be easily afford unlike tennis, as I interview one of the members of a tennis club, are costly.
Even this two sport can be done with racquets, it has difference,..... a huge difference.
