The Impossible Feat

No matter how good you are at badminton, I think it is very unlikely that you will be able to hit three targets in six attempts. So I would like to offer you a challenge. If you think you have what it takes to beat the odds, prove me wrong!

What is Shoootle

iluminous

Shoootle is a game that involves hitting shuttlecocks with a badminton racket into circular targets made of recycled shuttlecock tubes. It is quite versatile and can be enjoyed both indoors and outdoors, either solo or with a group of friends.

Playing Shoootle has several benefits that can improve your physical and mental health, including:

  • 1

    Hand-eye coordination & muscle memory

    Shoootle requires a high level of hand-eye coordination, which has the potential to enhance your reflexes and develop your muscle memory. This, in turn, can lead to an improvement in your low serve.
  • 2

    Stress relief

    Playing Shoootle can be a fun and relaxing way to relieve stress and tension.
  • 3

    Mental focus

    Shoootle requires a great deal of concentration and focus, which can help improve your mental acuity and cognitive abilities. Players must learn to quiet their minds and focus their attention on the target, while remaining calm and centered.

    Socialization

    Shoootle is a great social activity that can bring people together and help build new friendships after a game of badminton. 

How to Play

Here are the basic steps to playing Shoootle:
