Abstract

A multifunction badminton unit includes a badminton racket and a badminton. The badminton racket is provided with plural luminous elements, a control switch and a buzzer mutually connected by an electric wire, and the head of the badminton is also provided with plural luminous elements, a control switch and a buzzer connected together by an electric wire. The control switches of the badminton racket and the badminton head are respectively actuated to start a cell to produce electric energy to be transmitted by the electric wire to the buzzer or to the luminous elements for giving out sounds or light. In addition, the nets of the badminton racket are coated with fluorescent paint. Thus, the badminton can conveniently be played at night or at a dim place by means of light of the luminous elements or the fluorescent paint and the sounds of the buzzer.
