Sky High

  • The Sport is played on an elliptical-shaped, five-hundred feet long and one-hundred eighty feet wide pitch, with a small central circle of approximately two feet in diameter. 
  • Spectator are seated at high vantage points to view the sport. 
  • The Indian National Team competed in the World Cup of 1994, but did not make it into the finals.
  •  India and Japan are the only Asian Countries to represent their Countries in this Sport. 
  •  Seven Hundred Fouls can be Committed in this sport according to it's Governing Council 
  • The Creator of this Game exclaimed that ""I invented this sport while spending the night in a very small room in the Bournville Hotel in Didsbury, Manchester after a fight with my boyfriend. Some of the game's elements such as the disproportionate amount of points were due to my state of mind at the time, as I felt these elements would be frustrating to men. The sport resembles most of Basketball, which is probably the sport I enjoy watching most. I had a lot of fun making up the rules and I've still got the notebook I did it in, complete with diagrams." 
  • Some of the Rules of this Sport includes : 
  1.  Players must not stray over the boundary lines of the pitch 
  2. "Time out" may be called at any time by the Captain of a team. Time out may be extended to two hours if a game has already lasted for more than twelve hours. Failure to return to the pitch after this time will lead to the team being disqualified. 
  3. Penalties can be awarded to teams by the referee 
  4. Contact is allowed, but a player may not seize hold of another player's Gears or any part of their anatomy.  
  5.  No substitution of players is allowed throughout the game, even if a player is too injured or tired to continue to play. 
  6. The Game will only end once the Customary entity takes place , or at the mutual consent of both team Captains.
