About Us
-
The Company
- Just For Fun Enterprises Pty Ltd, is a South Australian owned and operated family business,
- formed in May 2009 with Rodger and Inge Yates & Brian and Corina Kowald as Directors.
-
The RapBall prototype was constructed by Rodger in September 2007. Public reaction to the
-
game whilst played on Adelaide beaches, in local parks and camping grounds from South
-
Australia across to New South Wales was very positive. In every location people would
-
ask how and where they could buy 'RapBall.' This enthusiastic reception encouraged us to
-
put together the team that produces and markets RapBall today.
-
Our motivation in introducing RapBall to Australia is to bring families and friends together to
-
have FUN. RapBall can be played by young and old, abled and disabled, RapBall is for everyone!
-
The History of RapBall
-
-
In Spanish 'ball' is 'bola' and this is where our game originated. The 'Bola' is a primitive hunting
-
tool that was originally used by South Americal Indians and Gouchos to capture running animals,
-
birds or game by entangling their legs or wings. With RapBall there is no 'live game' but we have
-
added a strong element of FUN into the use of the 'Bola.'
-
RapBall is an outdoor and indoor game which can be played by children and adults of all ages
-
using balls tethered by cord and thrown at a Goal frame, where points are scored.
-
This game utilizes the ancient skills used by the South American Indians - Focus, Concentration
-
and Co-ordination. We have added the element of mental arithmetic which definitely enhances
-
the FUN as participants engage both their physical and mental attributes while playing the game.
-
Enjoy,
