摘要 A sporting game comprising a ball which can be hit between the players who are positioned in a fixed court and may not move their feet while playing and who are in addition separated by a net between them. The ball comprises two coiled strips of a light-weight material, each of said strips defining a plurality of coils and each of said coils of a first one of said strips being perpendicular to the planes defined by the coils of a second one of said strips. The ball is propelled over the net by means of discs having the shape of truncated cones and having a diameter approximately equal to 8% of the height of the player. The net is positioned at a height proportional to that of the taller player, while the area of each player''s court is proportioned to his height. The length of the court, parallel to the net, is equal to the height reached by each player with his right thumb when his right arm is stretched upwards, while the width at right angles to the net is half this length. The net is positioned at a height such that the top of it is at the eye level of the taller player.
