Introducing Pel-Law, Wales's forgotten national sport.

BBC Short on the Court at Nelson. Sorry I didn’t post this with the other posts on Pel Law and the Nelson Court, but I only recently discovered this video. I am also currently reading Kevin Dicks’ book on the history of Welsh handball. Really great book.

Aussie handball. pretty sure that’s a 60x30 court. probably built by the Christian Brothers in Australia. Idk what kind of ball they’re using but it looks a little less lively than ours (Americans). Also I think this is a great court...big and open, good for doubles. No stupid ‘outdoor ceiling’ like some of the three-wall courts here in the USA.. (that’s the whole point of being outside right!?)
