hey all...

last year we made a mini-arena that was 1/8th the size of the playing arena. It was such a success that we wanted to do it again.

now, for the balls last year, we found that ping pong balls tend to be almost 1/8th their size and worked out great for our mini-arena. Anybody have any ideas for the big balls? I wonder if tennis balls would work...hmmm.... did i just answer my question?

eh...go build a mini-arena. it's cheaper to build and you can make 10 of them for 1/8th the price of a real arena .
