Easy Peasy


  • The beginnings of "X" can be traced to the mid-1800s in British India, where it was created by British military officers stationed there.
  • "X" is related to a similar game played with a ball which originated in Tamil Nadu, and is similar to Hanetsuki which originated in Japan. 
  • Being particularly popular in the British garrison town Poona (now Pune), the game also came to be known as Poona. 
  • "X" was taken by retired officers back to England where it developed and rules were set out.
  • While initiated in England, competitive men's X in Europe has traditionally been dominated by Denmark. Asian nations, however, have been the most dominant ones worldwide. China, Indonesia, South Korea, and Malaysia along with Denmark are among the nations that have consistently produced world-class players in the past few decades, with China being the greatest force in both men's and women's competition in recent years.
