碩士 === 國立臺灣師範大學 === 體育學系 === 100 === Serve is one of the basic techniques in badminton game. There are two main badminton serves, the forehand and the backhand. The purpose of this study was to explore the kinematical variations in the different paths (low, flat and clear serves) of the forehand and backhand serves while the players were performed both of forehand, backhand serves in central court and backhand serves in front court. Eight male collegiate level one badminton players in Taiwan were recruited as the participants. The 3D kinematical data of dominated upper limbs were recorded by 10 Vicon MX-13+ system infrared high speed digital cameras (250Hz) and computed by Nexus 1.4 system software. The Friedman two-way variance analysis of nonparametric statistical test was used to test among three different standing spots and different path serves. The statistical analysis was calculated by SPSS 18.0 and the post-hoc comparison were calculated by the Excel software, the significant levels was at α = .05. The results showed that the fastest angular velocity in upper limbs of the backhand serve occurred on the elbow extension and ulnar flexion. In forehand serve, it occurred on the ulnar flexion and the wrist flexion. Among different paths of forehand serving, there was a supination movement in low serve that there was pronation in flat and clear serves. There was a fastest elbow extension angular velocity in backhand flat serve while there was a greatest supination velocity in clear serve. The backhand serve is more popular now. Training on the wrist ulnar movement will be one of the efficient methods to increase the performance of the serves. As on the results of this study, we recommend that the players should used the backhand serves in the badminton games.
