Emily recently spotted a story in Metro about the new sport of Knokkers - it's a cross between Pool and Tenpin Bowling, played on a massive pitch!
It looks like it'd be great fun, and as a fan of obscure, wierd, wonderful and strange sports I put out a tweet about the game, and had responses from some of my fellow twitterers who also wanted to play the game.
We've now, kind of unofficially, formed a Hybrid UK/USA Team - and we're open to challenges from all-comers!
The first BIG CHALLENGE is finding a 'Pitch' to play it on in the UK!
You can find out more about Knokkers on the official website.
A blog about our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour. With a sprinkling of nostalgia and urban exploration for good measure.
