TsegBall (pronounced seg-ball ) is a fun, new, team sport designed for use in schools, recreation and fitness centers, rehabilitation clinics and even the military. The game is easy to play and allows men and women to compete on the same team. Because it is a co-ed sport, the rules are designed to prevent any bodily contact. Men and women can enjoy the game together without the risk of injury prevalent in most contact sports. The game emphasizes good strategy rather than physical prowess and generates a lot of creativity. There is no jumping and players can only use their hands, so they've got to rely on quick thinking and fast reflexes in order to win.
TsegBall combines elements from handball, basketball, volleyball, rugby and hop-scotch--it's all of your favorite sports in one. The game can be played both indoors and outdoors by adapting the size of the field. (Click here to see the Field.) The number of players can be increased or decreased depending on the playing space.
TsegBall is designed for players ages 5 and up and can be played by individuals of varying fitness levels and mobilities.
But TsegBall is more than just fun and recreation, however. Because of the non-violent nature of the game, it is being used as a therapeutic sporting activity to help rehabilitate victims of sexual abuse. It is also being utilized by recreation centers as a healthy outlet for young people with behavioral problems. It has even been used by people in wheelchairs as part of a physical therapy plan!
While we mainly suggest TsegBall as a fun alternative to a traditional group sport, TsegBall also provides other health benefits, such as weight loss and stress relief. (Check out TsegBallfit.com for more details.)
