Speedminton

Speed Badminton - This is like Badminton, but as fast as squash, with distances like tennis, and a special shuttlecock (Speeder) that you can even play with in the wind – up to 290 km/h fast!

Speed badminton was invented (2001) by the Berliner, Bill Brandes, who wanted to create an outdoor variant of badminton. From this picture, it suggested people started playing on roof tops. that's looks kinda scary!

Here's a clip of PÄvelund Speedminton Open 2007 at Sweden from YouTube. Look at those fast actions! Now this looks like a fun sport!
