Male porn stars might have an unfair advantage.

So, no tequilla involved?

Serious answer. I think teqball will not be the new pickleball. Many Pball players are over 40 and like the pacing. I don’t see them doing an overhead smash with their feet. The rest of the football world will like it as it a good extension of their game. A more technical way to play for those precision freaks to control a soccer ball. I see a place for both.

Time will tell if Teqball grows any legs.
30 years ago, I never would have thought Soccer would be as popular or commonplace as it is now. Lots of schools in this area include Soccer in their sports or activity curriculum plans. Not so many Archery or Gun clubs, though.

I thought soccer was bigger in the ‘80s than it He’s now.

Bottom line: people who can’t play football, play this so-called sport of teqball, which is as emotionally fulfilling as is rope pulling.

as long as hacky sack players don’t congregate on tennis courts, they’re all good in my book

Yes, just like "Hacky Sack". And hula hoops. And pogo sticks.
