Okay, next time they’re thinking of adding a sport to the Summer Olympics they should really consider 360 Ball.
No, it’s not traditional, it hasn’t been around for very long, and there certainly aren’t a crop of established legends in the sport. But… It’s extremely entertaining, so…
Realistically it looks to be pretty much a perfect mixture of spike ball and squash. The object of the game is to work with your partner to bounce the ball off the centre circle, and you each are allowed to touch the ball once to get it there. It’s played in a dome, so you can also hit the ricochets.
It’s fast, it looks tiring as heck, and it’s very fun to watch.
Don’t be surprised if this sport begins picking up in popularity. Spike ball has already begun to pick up the pace in people that love to play, and 360 ball should be following close behind.
Who’s going to become the game’s first legend is the real question?
