The problem of the research lies in weakness in straight forehand stroke in national badminton league athletes. This skill requires strength and high speed to be performed correctly thus force momentum of the hitting arm should be increased. The research aimed at designing special exercises using loaded rackets to develop force momentum for the hitting arm while performing straight forehand by national badminton league athletes. The researchers used the experimental method. The subjects were (6) national badminton athletes. Pretests included hitting arm tests followed by the training program with two training sessions per week for six weeks. The data was collected and treated using proper statistical operations. The researchers concluded that the tests showed great results in favor of posttests of accuracy and force momentum. Finally the researchers recommended using loaded weights on other variables for badminton athletes. (Published abstract)
