Hello,

I cant find the CB thread, probably on another forum but anyways in Cardiff is there somewhere that would be capable/willing for us to play a few rounds of Powerball?

Just an idea since there's loads of us around is all.

30 people on  bocks on a basketball court would be dangerous, keep it to 5 on 5, but i like the idea

Failing that, get a big inflatable yoga ball thingy and play football/soccer.  It's a lot easier for noobs, just thought it would be worth mentioning.

Guys I dont mean to be rude but I have enough to deal with for this event so you're on your own with this.
There isn't anywhere local that this could take place, however there is an activity centre about 10-15 mins walk away which I believe have a basketball court (outside) and also a sports hall indoors. I was going to look into hiring the hall all day anyway and see if people wanted to go on the mats in 90 mins shifts.

I like the idea of playing with a giant inflatible ball better... it sounds far safer, and would probally be more interesting than basketball, there's less logistics involved.

as far as powerball goes, I dont think there is a suitable court nearby.
The one I thought seems to be a single hoop:

Powerball = Quickfire way to broken limbs if played like normal basketball.

They arent that heavy... i think it'd be more fun to propel it across a field on the ground however, into huge goals like football/soccer.

I had something considerably smaller in mind... 1m diameter or so.
