Rock-It-Ball was developed over 2005 and launched in February 2006. In the short time since then it has had a massive impact in schools all over the UK and is making inroads into universities, the military, prisons & leisure centres. In some areas it is being used by the fire brigade & police for community projects. It is also being used in youth organisations such as the scouts, air cadets, guides and is being used by PCT’s for combating obesity. There is an international federation, a growing number of national governing bodies and it has a presence in over 20 countries. There are currently two senior clubs established in the central belt of Scotland, the first being the Falkirk Cannons (www.falkirkcannons.com), the other club is Enigma which is based in Coatbridge.

Feedback indicates that it is particularly good in getting kids involved (that is kids aged 4 – 84!), even disenfranchised kids.

A key point is that you can get people playing in 5 – 10 minutes. If this is something you would like to try, then in the first instance we’ll show you how to perform the basic skills that you need, give you 5 – 10 minutes to practice and then we’ll get you playing Rock-It-Ball.
