Made-Up Sport Alert: RageBall 5 is Dodgeball, But Kind of Different

It’s been a while since we had a good made-up sport so with that in mind, may I present “RageBall5.” It’s dodgeball, played on sand, with two circular goals. So it’s really just a variation of something you would have played in gym class if you went to high school on a beach.

I assume the 5 on the end of the sport name stands for the number of players. Probably because you can’t have 6 people running around on one side of that cage. Not six. Anyway, here’s some more information from the official website:

"Rageball is a new extreme sport that everyone fell in love with at spring breaks in Panama City Beach and South Padre back in 2007. General Motors was our sponsor but with the economic downturn we had to put the game on the back shelf and wait for the right time. The economy has finally turned and now we will start toward going national and then worldwide with the game."

That’s from October. So, good news about sports and the economy! See you guys at Spring Break.
