Jorkyball

Jorkyball is a format of two vs two football. It is played in a 10 m by 5 m cage on artificial turf with the possibility of using the walls to pass, dribble, and score. As in football it is played only with the feet and use of hands is forbidden. The objective is to score goals into a net. As in squash and paddle, the sport is played in a four-walled court and all of them can be used including the net above, i.e. there is no outside. The governing body is the Jorkyball International Federation.
