Abstract: The purpose of this study was to devise a badminton high clear skill test utilizing a fan shaped target and to determine the objectivity, reliability and validity of this test. After preliminary research on the badminton high clear stroke, skill testing and target patterns used in testing, a fan shaped target was constructed. Five lines depicting a fan shape were extended from a center point on the net line to a line two feet beyond the back line of the badminton court. Four horizontal lines were drawn at two foot intervals in the back court area. This fan shaped target provided for measurement of placement as well as height and distance of the high clear stroke.
