HOW TO PLAY
1
Mark out a long rectangular field and divide the players into two teams standing on opposite ends.
2
One team serves by striking the ball with the palm of the hand so it travels across into the opposing team's side.
3
The receiving team must return the ball using only their palms, either before it bounces or within the agreed number of bounces.
4
A point is scored against a team if they fail to return the ball fairly within the field boundaries or let it bounce too many times.
5
Teams rotate who serves according to the score, similar to other volleying field sports.
6
Play to an agreed number of points per set, and decide the match over an agreed number of sets.
