Spikeball 3 Ball Original Roundnet Game Set - Includes 3 balls, net and bag

Product Information

A "kill" is a term used when ball is hit and bounces off the net, and the opposing team could not dig the ball, resulting in a point. In addition to the original, classic way of playing roundnet, there are many variations that can be made to the rules of the game, some of which have become more and more popular. Before the point starts, players will always be across the net from an opponent and next to their teammate.

In tournaments, the ball needs to be inflated to exactly 12 in (30 cm) in circumference, but it doesn’t matter as much if you’re just playing casually. This means they’ll be able to withstand the impact of errant falls and dives that tend to happen during a competitive roundnet game.

Sets from other manufacturers that don’t carry the Spikeball brand name cost anywhere from 20% to 50% less. If the ball comes in contact with the rim at any point of the game while a player attempts to hit the net, that is a point for the opposing team. Grab 2 other people to play opposite you and set up your stuff in a gym or a large field with plenty of space. If the ball hits the ground or rim of the net, or if it bounces on the net more than once, the other team gets 1 point.

Roundnet (also known as spikeball/Pingball) is a ball game created in 1989 by Jeff Knurek, inspired primarily by concepts from volleyball.

All you have to do is attach the leg floats to your spikeball set and fill the anchor bag with something heavy and you’re good to go – just a few extra steps for a whole lot of added fun. It's lighter—about 3 pounds (while others hover closer to 7 pounds), more durable, thicker, has more textured balls for greater control and spin, and has foldable legs to prevent breakage and make storage a breeze. The company manufactures equipment for the game, [3] and so "spikeball" became a common name for the game. You can also purchase the Spikeball Spikebuoy on Water Accessory for your Spikeball set if you want to play the game on water.

If the serve “fails” (if the ball bounces straight back at the server instead of out toward the other players), you get one more try. This fun, athletic game will have you running all over your yard to set, spike, and bump the ball back onto the net. Hung up against the wall doesn’t take up much space, particularly because the legs fold up to make the net flat. The creators of Spikeball have created a buoy that allows you to play spikeball in the water, whether in the pool, in the sea or in a lake.The Win Sport set is perfect for those of you who aren’t too keen on spending too much money on a game. So if you’re going to play a competitive game, a softer playing surface is desirable to prevent scrapes and bruises. For my youngest’s recent birthday party, we set it up in the yard and, within seconds, we had a line seven or eight kids deep waiting for a turn. Only one of them had ever played before, but no one needed more than a word or two of instructions to understand how to play. If you’re looking to get into Spikeball, you’re probably trying to figure out what equipment is needed and how many people you need to play.
