The stick the game is played with is a small pole with a net at the end. The pole is normally three to five feet long and the net at the end is one foot long, 1/2 foot deep and 1/2 foot wide. The ball (of solid rubber) is kept in the net while running, and passed from person to person, net to net, by bringing the top hand rapidly forward and the bottom hand rapidly back.

The team is still in existence today. Seven out of the ten players in a team are from our school. There is a league which we participate in and last year (1979) we finished roughly halfway. We also participated in many tournaments and were successful in these also.
Hopefully this team will carry or for many years with as many Salvatorian players as there are now.
