Hornussen - the sport of Swiss farmers

[albobay1]

i want to play this and i live in french speaking switzerland. anyone know any clubs? any ideas?

[PsiStarstormOmega982]

what i notice is that the speed of the projectile in sports seem to be getting closer and closer to the sound barrier it must be that sometime in the future there will be a sport in where the projectile breaks the sound barrier

[bahalama]

Im Swiss and live abroad since one year. Never had anything to do with Hornussen while in Switzerland. Now in Thailand I am proud that we Swiss play such a wonderful game (no hooligans there!!!!)

It's a very charming sport in how goofy it is. Looks like something out of a cartoon.

[bwnahs]

is swiss german (schwitzertütsch) like ebonics? only used on the streets?

[railcity]

No. It's the general SPOKEN language (mother tongue) in so called "german-speaking Switzerland" for everyone, including government officials, top managers, nobel price winners.... But it's not standardised. It exists in regional variations of which 95% are easily understandable to eachother. At the same time, the predominant WRITTEN language is still Standard German, even though Schwyzerdütsch is gaining ground in the written form as well.

[shaftster2001]

That's retarded

[Hornusser87]

Hi Guys. I'm a Swiss and I play Hornussen since 13 years. Hornussen is very funny but it isn't a game of farmers. All people can play that. And Hornussen isn't played in small area. It's played everywhere in Switzerland. But it's right that the most teams are in the Emmental. Ask me when you need more informations.

[rolchan]

I just came back from such a game. It's only played in one small area of Switzerland(the valley of Emmental). Even me -as a Swiss- I saw this game for the first time live. It was interesting and sure good fun!

[Ichinisandaaan]

looks fun, good way to spend an afternoon in the summertime

[Faststick]

shit when you get one of these rods in your face be shure that was the last thing you saw..:-)
