Description of Blongo Ball Complete Game Set
WARNING: CHOKING HAZARD - Small parts. Not for children under 3 years. The perfect tailgate game or a competitive contest for a summer lawn party, the Blongo® Family Fun BlongoBall Set includes 2 BlonGoals (racks) and 2 sets of three BlongoBalls. The object is to toss the two BlongoBall, two-piece golf balls attached to rope, on to one of the bars attached to the BlonGoal for a certain number of points.Liven up your camping trips and family reunions with this full BlongoBall set. Appropriate for use both outdoors and indoors, BlongoBall combines elements from bocce, horseshoes, croquet, and other lawn sports, but adds a unique twist: rather than throwing a ball or a shoe, you throw a BlongoBall, which is technically two small spheres connected by a thin stretch of rope. The goal is to wrap your BlongoBall around one of the horizontal bars of the BlonGoal, which stands 25 feet away (or less if kids are playing). Players score one, two, or three points with a successful throw, depending on which bar the BlongoBall grabs. And the game ends when one person or team reaches 21 points exactly. You can even add a bit of defensive strategy to the game by trying to knock your opponent's BlongoBalls off the bars.
BlongoBall is fun for kids and families, but it's also great for physical education classes, teambuilding games, or even as a rehab tool in a therapy setting. The BlongoBall set comes with two BlonGoals and two sets of BlongoBalls. Players can also purchase such accessories as extra BlongoBalls, a carrying bag, and a portable score tower.
About BlongoBall
Mike Long and his wife, Roberta, were early retirees who spent much of their time fishing, hunting, rafting, boating, and RVing. When Mike was introduced to the rudimentary concept of BlongoBall, he decided that the game merited serious development and investigation. Mike built the prototype game and used all of his friends as test subjects. BlongoBall was tested on the beaches of Lake Powell, on raft trips on the Salmon River, on the beaches of San Diego, and in parks and campgrounds form the southwest to the northwest. In every location, passersby would stop and interrupt the games to find out where they could buy BlongoBall. The enthusiastic response encouraged Mike to continue to refine the rules and goal configurations.
After months of design, research and testing, Mike applied for and received a patent for BlongoBall, which has been enthusiastically received by kids and adults of all ages since its release. Founded in 2004, BlongoBall is located in Spokane, Washington.

I couldn't be happier with this fun game. It is really fun, stays together and stores well too. This is the first one I've owned, but made my purchase based on recommendations from others who purchased the same one. I couldn't be more happy.Customer Review: Best yard game ever!

We played this at Mem. Day picnic....had a fun time...ladders did not tip over even though the area we played in was not exactly level. Everyone there wanted to know where I got it so they too, could buy their own. You won't be disappointed.Customer Review: Hope Grand Children will enjoy

I purchased the same game last year for 2 of my other Grandchildren. It has been well used and enjoyed. So this year I tried looking to see if there was something better out there. Could not find an improvement so I bought the same one.
