Australian Handball
Australian handball is an Australian schoolyard and recreational game on a hard surface with squares, lines and a bouncy ball. Players strike the ball with the hand so it bounces in their own square first and then in another square. Local variants such as King/Ace, lines, fulls and doubles are agreed before play.
