The most fun part is, it&#8217;s a 360 degree game with no boundaries. Here&#8217;s a video that shows it in action.<\/p>\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-youtube wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Spikeball Roundnet Top 10 Plays of 2019\" width=\"820\" height=\"461\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/f4Dc0wWnXtY?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n<p>\u2022 It can be played anywhere: garden, park, indoors, beach, pool, lake mountain (yep, we&#8217;ve seen it all)<br>\u2022 Sports professionals (including Rugby players) seem to love it, including the famous Danny Cipriani.
