What sport is this again?
reply
It’s basically handball, except they play it with their feet.
We may need @Aardvark to explain why?
reply
Close, but the explanation is a bit more complex. Handball is based on a mesoamerican ball game that was played since around 1650 BC.
That game was played exclusively with their feet.
So handball is based on that, but with hands, and soccer is based on handball but with feet.
Fun fact, pickle ball is based on soccer but with paddles.

Amazing insight. I always thought pickleball was based on soccer but with pickles.

It's just amazing how these things morph over time.
I knew that you'd know the story.

Some people belive that pickle ball will be played in outerspace eventually... probably with their feet.
reply
Makes sense, since you need gravity for paddles to work.

Not sure, can someone please help? @Wumbo?

I think @grayruby was just making a joke.
Not really a question.

Haha. It's ok @Undisciplined cleared it up for me. Handball but using feet. Odd sport but I think I get the gist of it.

Somehow missed on the red card for you...
