For those unfamiliar with the sport of fistball, please refer to this quick video explaining the basic rules of the game.  The dynamic sport of fistball requires great speed, agility precision, and power making it a premier spectator sport that must be seen to be believed.  Much like Olympians, the world class athletes that will compete in these games have dedicated all of their time to practicing, training, and learning the fine nuances of the sport and in most countries it’s done with little to no funding.  They truly play the sport of fistball for the love of the game.  Come see these athletes put their passion on display!  With interactive areas for kids and adults interested in trying their hand at the sport, access to international players for autographs and photos, and plenty of great food and drink available, the Swim and Sport Club in Flanders, New Jersey will be the place to be August 27th-30th of 2015.
