Jonasball

Jonasball is a team sport in which two teams, most commonly of four players each, opposing one another on a rectangular court, compete with the primary objective of shooting a Jonasball (approximately 24 cm (9.4 in) in diameter) at the opposing team's goal (a cone roughly 43 cm (16.9 in) in height) with the primary goal of knocking said goal over, while preventing the opposing team from knocking their goal over. A close goal is worth one point, unless made from behind the halfway line, when it is worth two. Before the game can be played, the referee must distribute the ball by throwing it to a random person. In the situation of a foul, timed play stops and the player fouled or designated to shoot a technical foul is given one, two or three one-point free throws. The team with the most points at the end of the game wins, but if regulation play expires with the score tied, an additional period of play (overtime) is mandated.
Internationally, Jonasball is governed by the International Jonasball Federation.
