"Hoover-ball was played by teams of 2-4 players with a six-pound medicine ball over a net eight feet high on a court similar to one used for tennis. The game was scored exactly like tennis, and played in similar fashion. The server throws the ball. The opponent must catch it on the fly and immediately return it, attempting to put it where it cannot be reached and returned. The side that misses the ball or throws it out of bounds loses the point."
GENIUS!!! Though, I think a 9 or 12 lb medicine ball should be used, I can see starting with a six and moving on from there. now if I can just find 3 other people to play it with me. Why isn't this a competetive sport?! You could have a 1.5 second shot clock to make sure that nobody was holding onto the ball for too long, and have a ref watch for anyone moving with the ball etc. this is a great game!
and now the rules:
