Tackle Basketball

Author Note: This a short story on a new sport.


There are so many sports out there. There has always been a question in my mind, why we can’t combine sports? The perfect sport to do so is tackle basketball. This sport will be based around more of a guy atmosphere. The goal in this game is to get the ball in through the hoop. It might sound easy but there are no fouls so you can tackle people. However you’re obviously not going to want to get tackled on hard wood floor so there are going to be wrestling mats placed all around the court. On the mats there are markings on the mat where you get certain points depending where you are, a half court shot in basketball is 7 points, a shot from behind were the 3 point arch is a 4 point shot, and then any other shot counts as a 3.

I know that you’re not going to be able to throw a basketball consistently far so when you’re going to get tackled so that mean you’re going to have to use a smaller ball.   As a result I thought a perfect ball would be about half the size of a mens ball and have the laces of a football.  I almost forgot to mention the hoop is the same thing as baseball. I don’t think this will ever become a sport but I decided to through out there. You never know maybe you’ll be the next one to come out with the next big thing.
