Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: Participants are graduate students aged between 22 and 35 years, as this age range reflects the typical age of graduate students at Qufu Normal University, and represents a period of significant academic and career pressures, as well as physiological and psychological stability, making it ideal for studying sleep disorders and anxiety. Participants were required to meet the criteria of a Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index score greater than 5, indicating poor sleep quality, for inclusion in the study..No severe physical illnesses or chronic diseases and able to participate in badminton training. Participants are willing and able to comply with the study protocol Participants voluntarily agree to participate in the study after being fully informed and have signed the informed consent form.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: Exclusion Criteria: (i) Individuals with severe mental health issues, who require professional treatment.

(iii) Individuals who have been using sleeping pills, sedatives, or other medications (such as antidepressants) that affect sleep quality on a long-term basis. (iv) Individuals who have previously participated in similar badminton or exercise intervention studies. (v) Pregnant or breastfeeding women, to avoid potential health or training effects. (vi) Individuals who are simultaneously involved in other treatments that may affect sleep quality. (vii) Individuals who, for any personal reason, are unable to complete the entire study protocol.
