Modifications
DAAA follows the normal rules of badminton, unless superseded by the DAAA modifications:

Serving Modifications
Sidearm serve will be allowed because short stature and a long racket make the underhand serve difficult for the dwarf athlete.
No overhead serves will be allowed.
Competition
Pool play to 11 points or 15 minutes.
Winners of the pool will play a tournament for medals.
Regulations
Badminton court dimensions and net height are specified by the International Badminton Association for the Disabled (IBAD).
Competition follows the rules and regulations of the Badminton World Federation (BWF):
Scoring System
A match consists of the best of 3 games of 21 points.
Every time there is a serve – there is a point scored.
The side winning a rally adds a point to its score.
At 20 all, the side which gains a 2 point lead first, wins that game.
At 29 all, the side scoring the 30th point, wins that game.
The side winning a game serves first in the next game.
Interval and Change of Ends
When the leading score reaches 11 points, players have a 60 second interval.
A 2 minute interval between each game is allowed.
In the third game, players change ends when the leading score reaches 11 points.
Singles
At the beginning of the game (score 0-0) and when the server’s score is even, the server serves from the right service court. When the server’s score is odd, the server serves from the left service court.
If the server wins a rally, the server scores a point and then serves again from the alternate service court.
If the receiver wins a rally, the receiver scores a point and becomes the new server. Service is from the appropriate service court – left if their score is odd, and right if even.
Paralympic Competition
Badminton was first sanctioned as an Olympic sport at the Barcelona 1992 Games. The BWF and IBAD have applied to the International Paralympic Committee (IPC) to have badminton included in the London 2012 Paralympic Games.
To compete in Paralympic Games, the maximum height for a dwarf to meet the minimal disability is 142 cm for males and 136 cms for female. The athlete must also exhibit other disabilities besides being short stature, such as orthopedic conditions. (Therefore, a pituitary dwarf is not eligible to participate under the dwarf classification.

GA=1
Team1 loses one game 2-1 points

4 GF=(3+1)
3 GA=(1+2)
1 (GF-GA)=(4-3)
Team2 wins one game 1-0 points
GF=1
GA=0
Team2 loses one game 0-3 points
GF=0
GF=3
Team2 Total (GF-GA) = -2points
1 GF=(1+0)
3 GA=(0+3)
-2 (GF-GA)=(1-3)
Team1 wins the Bronze Medal by calculation
Team1 Total = 1 point
Team2 Total = -2 points
