What is Squareball?

Squareball consists of three teams of four.

The court consists of four 1-metre circles - each 5 metres apart - forming a square.

The game starts with Team A occupying the circles. They have a ball and they pass the ball around the square. Each circuit scores one point. Teams B and C roam freely and they try to intercept the ball. If they can do this, the ball is returned to the start of the square.

Each period lasts three minutes and then the teams change position. Each team has two innings - two attempts at passing the ball around the square - so a complete game lasts eighteen minutes.

The game is popular in the west country of England.

GIMNAZJALNO-LICEALNY ZESPÓŁ SZKÓŁ W WOŁCZYNIE.

Here's some information about me and my school. As you already know my name is Justyna Broniszewska an I am an English teacher. Our school is in a small town called Wołczyn, it's in the south-west of Poland. It is a grammar school and secondary school but I am going to work on this poject with the older students, they are 15-18 years old.

The name of our school is GIMNAZJALNO-LICEALNY ZESPÓŁ SZKÓŁ W WOŁCZYNIE. The address of our website is www.glzs.wolczyn.pl

My friend Anna Skrzypczyk-Miś is also going to work with me on this project. She's an English teacher too. If it's possible we will come to Baia Mare together. The problem is that our National Agency doesn't have any more money for preparatory visits so we are trying to get the money from our headmaster and local authorities. They like the project very much so I hope they will be able to sponsor our visit.

Greetings
Justyna

What is Stoolball?

Stoolball is the traditional community game of Brighton in Sussex. It dates back to the 15th century and was played by milkmaids who sometimes used their milking stools as wickets. The game is similar to cricket, honkball or oina.

In the original game, a bowler throws the ball - a tennis ball will do - towards the wicket - usually a big tree. If the ball hits the tree at a height between the neck and the knees, the batsman is out. The batsman defends his wicket with a frying pan or saucepan. He runs between his wicket and the bowler and back again to score a point or run.

The pitch is a small field or cricket oval. If the batsman hits the ball outside of this area, he scores four runs.

Usually, there are eleven players in each team in the modern game. However, in the traditional game, there can be any number of players on each team - sometimes all the men of one village would play against all the men of a neighbouring village.
