Teqball - This is a new sport to me.

[FourWheelDrift]

Sort of a cross between mixed table tennis, football and volley ball

Turning it up to 11, here comes Headnis. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mvcspocrg1U

If I tried either, I'd probably knock myself out on the edge of the table.

I'm a huge fan - they invented it to be one of the more accessible table sports as you can play Teqball with just a football.

It's a really good way to improve your technical football skills too, it talks about it here (https://mancaveshq.com/blog/best-teqball-tables-buying-guide-how-to-play/) and the cheapest teqball table isn't half bad. Thinking about getting one myself.

Has anyone actually played it before? Is it easy enough to get used to?

Definetly not as easy as it looks. If you haven't got a delicate touch then this isn't for you!

I am always nervous when a bunch of kids in a park shouts, "Hey, mister, kick us our ball back." I never really know where it's going to go. So definitely not for me.

Haha me too. I do enjoy the element of surprise though. If it goes horribly wrong I just pretend I am in my work shoes.

Played it a few times before and they definitely make it look easier than it is!

Good fun though and a good way to improve your touch.

I will have to remember that one. Although when the fear hits, nothing will come to mind and I'll probably say something stupid.
