I use the internet and I find others unusual sports: Chessboxing, Korfball, Tchonkball

Chessboxing: Two minutes in the boxing ring and four minutes the chess.

Korfball: Mixed teams 4 men and 4 women. The ball is similar to football but played with him in basketball.

Tchonkball: You hit the ball with a trampoline that bounces elastic and your opponent has to be avoided.



A sport description I have chosen: Pelota Vasca.

In Pais Vasco, Navarra or la Rioja in Spain they play a game called Pelota Vasca. They play in a closed space. The team hit the ball against a gable wall called “frontis”. The frontis is the 36 cm, 30cm or 54 cm.In it there are steps that will give you winning points.
The ball is the wood of boj and the leather. Its hit with a paddle or basket (the chestnut and wicker).
There are two o four players in a team. They use white T-shirt and white trousers and they use and “gerriko” it’s a sash, the sash as the different colours, because it’s to identify team.
