Hi,
I'm 58 years old and I have 6 children. I live in Warsaw, Poland. I'm a physicist but I make a living as a programmer.
Slinging has been my sport, pleasure and hobby for almost 40 years.
A few years ago, when my kids finally grew up we started to play dodgeball-like game using slings and ultra-light foam balls. We named this game "Slingers' Clash", shortly: S'Clash.
Because of the minimal weight of the ammunition used, we use non-standard triangular slings with three strings rather than two, as usual:
Such a design largely eliminates problems with excessive ball rotation, which effects in a significantly improved accuracy.
For some time now we have been trying to popularize our game in Poland and we are achieving some success.
We are still far from being the hit of the season but interest in the game is growing and I hope for the best.
Even the Warsaw city authorities decided to support us and gave us space and funds to organize publicly-opened training sessions.
Please take a look at
http://slingersclash.org/videos.php, there are videos from the last training games with scouts and some family matches. Some example:
I hope the idea of such a game can be interesting to the slinging.org community.
S'Clasher
