NO ENTRY FEE – NO ADMISSION FEE

A fun family gathering for all ages. The game will be taught at the event.

Gob Robbing is for everyone. People of all ages, from preschool age to seniors, will fare equally in the game.

The target is to break the world record for the number of players = one big game. We'd wish to see 800 players in the same game. The number of players will be determined according to the number of sticks used (1 stick/player).

All required equipment will come from the organizer.

Competitive events;

- 6 person mixed teams

- 4 person family teams, where minimum 2 children (under the age of 16 years, or 1 child and 1 senior 65+)

Gob Robbing presentations for new players.

Other activities and competitions, for example;

- accuracy competition – shooting the Gobbet into a bucket

- Gobbet distance shooting competition

- Gobbet dodging competition

- etc.

Other fun activities during the day.

The most exciting sporting event of the summer.

Gob Robbing is a fun game, where everyone is at an even level, and which entertains both the players as well as the spectators. Our motto is;

"Nobody is bad, nobody is the best, everybody is good". The game is for all ages, regardless of their fitness level. The skills required are more to do with being smart, than with technical expertise. Everyone can play equally in the same game.
