On August 17, 2005, over 300 Physical Education Teachers and Athletic Directors from the Prince George's County School System had a chance to see TsegBall in action. Juanita Ross, Supervisor of Physical Education and Athletics for Prince George's County, organized two in-service programs for the county, one for elementary and middle school teachers, and one for high school teachers. This year, TsegBall was the only new game to be introduced at either in-service program.

TsegBall inventor and presenter, Sebastian Bruce, gave a brief overview of the history of TsegBall and how it has helped to enhance the educational curricula in many schools across the country. Then after a quick explanation of the rules, the fun began. The teachers quickly picked up the rules of the game and jumped in with both feet. They played for an hour with six member teams, alternating players. All the teachers agreed that this was a game that would catch their students' attention.   Jana Hanson, a teacher at Thomas Pullen Elementary School enjoyed playing TsegBall “because there were multiple nets and everyone was always moving.   I highly recommend it to any P.E. program, from Kindergarten to 12 th grade.”

Andrew Tetteh, from Perrywood Elementary School also feels that TsegBall would be a great addition to a P.E. curriculum: “It's fun—a lot of throwing, a lot of catching, a lot of movement.   It you're looking for a different, fresh game to play with your kids…I definitely recommend TsegBall.”

Angie, another P.E. teacher at the in-service, was really impressed with TsegBall: "I love this game. Everyone can play without getting hurt. We should have had a game like this a long time ago."

Student Erica Hawkins agrees that TsegBall's focus on safety is a definite plus: “… it's just a really soft ball so if you get hit with it, it doesn't hurt….and basketballs really hurt, so it's a really good sport and I like it.”

TsegBall's unique design both protects the players and promotes the use of strategy versus strength.   Kyle, the Physical Education teacher at Oaklands Elementary School agrees that TsegBall encourages players to be more aware of how they move: “The game is fun, full of action, full of motion….the only skill I couldn't use was jumping, but that means you need to use body control.”

Juanita Ross felt that TsegBall was a big hit with the teachers: “The teachers really did enjoy this game today.   It's a fast moving game with many skills….and we hope to adopt this game in our program.   It's wonderful.”
