Morphology

badminton + equipment

The meaning 'equipment for playing badminton' is directly and compositionally derived from the nouns 'badminton' (the sport) and 'equipment' (objects required for an activity). This noun–noun compounding pattern is a regular, cross-linguistically common way to specify purpose or association, so a B1 learner who knows both words will readily infer the MWE meaning.

Etymology

Badminton equipment is a simple name for the gear used in the sport badminton, where equipment means things like rackets, shuttlecocks and nets. Imagine a player carrying a bag of these items — that bag is their 'badminton equipment', so the phrase means 'the tools you need to play'.
