Re: WE WANT YOUR BALLS!

I vote volleyball....we've tried it....it's hard. The overpass is not a very good net, and it is VERY hard to return after a serve. Still worth a shot though.

My team tried this, and found it actually works quite well. Might have been because we were in a room exactly the same size as the play field, so bouncing it off the walls was legal. It was more like playing volley ball in a hockey rink...
