Roll Ball- The Indigenous Indian Sport That Needs Attention

Roll Ball is a team sport that combines aspects of Basketball, Handball and Roller skating. A game played between two teams consisting of twelve players and the objective is to score goals by shooting the ball through opposing team’s goal post within a stipulated time. Rollball was invented in India by Raju Dabhade in Pune. The sport is internationally recognized now and is currently played in 42 other countries of the world.

Many of us might have minimal knowledge about this sport but athletes in India have attained glory at International level and they still lack recognition. It is high time we educate the sports enthusiasts about Roll Ball and back the players and the community by sharing information on the evolution of this amazing sport.
