Regular physical activity (PA) engagement has multiple benefits for individual general
health at all ages and life stages. The present work focuses on badminton, which is one of the most
popular sports worldwide. The aim was to conduct a systematic review focused on examining and
analysing this sport and the benefits it brings to the health of those who engage in it. Examination
was conducted from the viewpoint of overall health and provides an overview of the current stateof-
the-art as presented in published scientific literature. PRISMA 2020 guidelines were adhered to.
An exhaustive search was conducted of four electronic databases or search engines: Web of Science,
Scopus, MEDLINE and Google Scholar. The search terms used were “badminton AND health”
and “badminton AND benefits”. In total, 27 studies were eligible for inclusion in the systematic
review. After analysing the results, it was concluded that badminton engagement may lead to an
improvement in all areas, the most studied being those related to physical health, in particular the
improvement of cardiac and pulmonary functions and the development of basic physical capacities.
