Ok...
Whirlyball was canceled for me. So I didn't end up going. But I will explain this new game to you all as best I can.
Whirlyball is a combination of bumper cars and basketball, with a few twists. There are two teams on the court at once. You ride around a court in a bumper car and each player has a (as my brother put it) "plastic ball catcher/thrower" which is used to pass the ball around and shoot goals. On either end of the court there is a backboard with a 12 inch hole in the back. The team's goal is to make as many baskets/goals as possible in the 13 minutes of each round.
If you want to check it out, go here and see for yourself!
Maybe one day I'll play whirlyball for real! And then take pictures! And then you can see!
"The road of life twists and turns and no two directions are ever the same. Yet our lessons come from the journey, not the destination." Don Williams - American Novelist and Poet 1968

Whirlyball!
Tonight we are going with the Allen's to play whirlyball for Mr. Bill's birthday!
I have never played before, but I hear it is a ton of fun!
I'll let you know how it goes later!
Pictures to follow? Possibly.
