Fistball

Fistball is such a very old sport which was referenced in the text in 240 by Roman Emperor Gordian III. The aim of this sport is hitting to ball over the net to the opponent’s field. It is quite similar to tennis and volleyball. It now is a part of the World’s Game. The world championship is held every 4 years.


A fistball team has to have 5 players playing on the field which is 20mx50m. It is usually the grass field which is divided by a central line. Above the central line, 2m wide net is strung across the field.


Fistball players have to hit the ball with fists or arms. The ball is allowed to bounce once on the field like tennis before being hit back. The team reaching 11 points first will win the set. A match is exercised 5 sets and the team reach 3 set first will win the match.
