Lots. Very very popular at Oxford University I am told and we have several very sharp young players here in NZ. One under 20 did brilliantly in the World Champs in Christchurch.
You can play at any age. It is somewhat humbling to be beaten by a 90 year old man or woman. It happens to me more often than I care to admit.
The ball has to go right thought the hoop to run a hoop. If it sticks you give up your turn!If it sort of goes halfway through you get out a piece of string and run it up and down the back of the hoop. If you can do this your through!
Very easily! The ball barely goes though the hoop. There is only about the width of a dollar coin clearance and you have to line up with incredible precision even from a yard away and even then it can stick.
The Mayor was such a good sport and allowed us to put this up!
remember me? haha. i wish every hoop had the width of a dollar coin allowance. well the top 10 invitaion was a steak knife allowance haha. very difficult to peel. hows life treating ya over there?
What a fantastic, lovely little introduction! A superb little piano piece.
