English: A badminton racket (vợt cầu lông in Vietnamese) is the primary equipment used in the sport of badminton. It consists of two main parts: the handle (cán vợt) and the racket face (mặt vợt).

Handle (cán vợt): The handle of a badminton racket is typically made from wood, plastic, or other lightweight and rigid materials such as aluminum or graphite. The handle is designed to be gripped firmly to ensure good control when striking the shuttlecock. It can also come in various shapes and sizes to cater to the individual preferences of the players.

Racket Face (mặt vợt): The racket face is the crucial part used by players to hit the shuttlecock. Typically, the racket face is constructed from materials like fiberglass or carbon fiber for lightness and good durability. The racket face has a flat surface and a backside, often featuring small holes to reduce weight and enhance flexibility. The shape of the racket face may vary depending on its intended use.

Long racket face: Used for powerful smashes and offensive play. Round racket face: Used for better control and defensive shots. Heart-shaped racket face: Provides a balance between control and attack. The racket face is attached to the handle using a special hook or locking system, keeping them securely joined.

In badminton, players use the racket to hit the shuttlecock over the net, aiming to score points by landing the shuttlecock in the opponent's area. The choice of racket type and racket face design depends on a player's playing style and personal goals.
