Luau-Ball - Flagstaff Hill (across from Phipp's Conservatory in Oakland)

Luau-Ball is my second newest sport and it has evolved quite a bit in its short lifespan so far. With the larger crowds we've been getting for sports lately I have a few ideas in mind for how to alter Luau-Ball to keep it competitive and fun for larger crowds. We'll try a few variations this week depending on how many people show up.

This is basically basketball on grass with the option to shoot anywhere within a 360 degree circle around the hoop. Different point values are awarded based on distance shooting the ball. We use a 19" yoga ball as the ball. The hoop is 10' high. There isn't any dribbling so you need to rely on teammates and passing to move the ball down the field. Games are typically played to 25 and we've been averaging 3 full games per night.

**Please keep in mind that I run 2 different Meetup groups with this event posted and also have a complete separate text group I message to find people interested in playing with us for ALL of my events. Don't ever let the numbers on this Meetup page alone prevent you from joining us as there is usually at least 3 times that amount actually attending the event. I will cancel the event if we don't have enough people to play it (from all available sources). If you're nervous about joining us for your first Meetup, bring a friend!**

Parking is free after 6 pm along the road near the field. Cleats are suggested but not required. Bring something to drink and some sunglasses. Hope to see you there!
