Zorb football

Zorb football is a team sport that was derived from association football in which players are encased in an inflated bubble called a Zorb, covering the entire upper body from waist up including the head.

Zorb football was invented in Norway and currently has found acceptance in the UK, the United States and New Zealand. It is both a physical and a fun game which is played at a recreational and competitive level.

The sport can be played both indoors and outdoors. The field used is similar in size to that of indoor soccer fields. There are goal areas at either end and the objective is to score as many goals as possible.

In zorb football, it is legal for players to run into other players and knock them down regardless of whether they have the ball or not. Players get pushed down all time. Since the players are completely protected there is no risk of injury.
