Kin - Ball: Game's rules
Hi again!
In this week's section we are going to talk about the game's rules.
The game itself is based on a system of serve and reception, in which the team that takes out and, therefore, has possession, has to organize what is known as "tripod": the ball is held by three of the team members, while the fourth is responsible for hitting it -never down to give the other team the possibility of receiving it- without taking it between the arms, and using any part of the body above the hip (contact with the legs it is only accepted in defensive phase). The minimum horizontal distance that the ball should fly in its displacement is 1.83 meters (72 inches approximately).
Before the strike occurs, the team that gets out must pronounce aloud the word "Omnikin" accompanied by the color of the team that must receive the ball. For example: "Black Omnikin!" All players participate in the throwing and defense, and if one team commits a foul, the other two receive a point in favor.
The reception of the ball must be achieved without the ball touching the ground or the limits of the playing area, including fixed obstacles inside the field. One, two, three or four players can receive the ball with any part of the body. The ball can never be caught by a single player. A trapping of the ball is considered when there is a complete immobilization with two body parts (hand-hand, foot-hand). This action is a foul and a point will be scored for non-infringing teams.
The same thing happens if the attacking team throws the ball out of the field of play, in which case it is penalized by adding the other two teams one point.
If the reception is successful, the team have ten seconds to organize a new attack in which all its members must participate.
The winner will be the team that previously manages to score 13 points, although if the time of game is over, the team that has scored the most points wins. If there is a tie between two or more teams, it will be drawn among the teams involved.
Through this scoring system, complemented by the fact that one team can’t call another that is two or more points below the scoreboard, what is sought is that no team is badly hurt, promoting more equal games in which all the participating teams have chances of winning until the end.

Kin - Ball: History
Hello again!
In this week's section we are going to talk about the history of Kin-Ball.
Its origin dates from 1986, when Mario Demers, a physical education teacher from Canada, concluded that most collective sports are based on the individual skills of certain players.
For this reason, he tried to create a game whose characteristics allowed the teams involved to promote other qualities and values that encourage teamwork, cooperation, integration, respect and sportsmanship.
Then, he came up with the idea of designing a new sport. The proposal of a game in which three teams participate was seen as innovative and interesting. It was considered that three would be ideal, since an odd number always narrows the ties of collaboration in the core of a team. In this way Kin-Ball was born, a sport that was based on rules of other sports that were combined with their own rules.
Since that first gym class in which he put it to the test, this sport has become popular and spread around the world. Kin-ball expanded beyond Canada and soon Japan saw Kin-ball spread across the island. From there, over the years, it arrived in South Korea and China, and lately, it is developing in other Asian places, such as Singapore, Malaysia and Hong Kong.
In Europe, France and Belgium have been the pillars of Kin-ball for years. It has also arrived in Switzerland, Spain, Portugal, Denmark, Sweden or Germany. Currently, Kin-ball is expanding through Central Europe: Czech Republic, Slovakia or Austria are already playing. In America, they begin to hear news about Kin-ball clubs in Argentina, Chile, Uruguay and Brazil.
There is already the International Federation of Kin-Ball, which has almost four million federated practitioners. In fact, it is recognized as a federated sport in Canada, Japan, the United States and Belgium. On two occasions, it has been presented as an exhibition sport at the Quebec Games and efforts have been made to present it as an Olympic sport.
In June 2001, the first International Tournament was celebrated in Quebec, and in December 2003, the first European Championship.
Goodbye and see you next week!

Kin - Ball: Introduction
Hi everyone!
In this section we are going to talk about a sports modality known as "Kin-Ball". This sport was created in 1986, by a Canadian physical education teacher, who decided that it was time to encourage teamwork and cooperation between players, instead of enhancing the individualism seen in other sports.
Its expansion is mainly because it is a spectacular sport, with relatively clear rules and easy to learn. It is perfect for developing sports programs in schools, where it is beginning to be used alongside other sports considered alternative, such as Ultimate or bubble football, very fun and with basic physical requirements in principle, but that achieve a clear objective: to promote Sport and the pleasure of active physical activity.

3 teams participate in each match. Each one has 4 players on
the court, although it is made up of 8 players in total. They are necessarily mixed. The objective of the game is to hit the ball on the ground for the team that throws it, and get to avoid it for one of the two teams that defend.
In the coming weeks, we will upload more content about this interesting and innovative sport.
Goodbye everyone!
