Product Description
Want your camping trips, family reunions, RV trips or picnics to be a huge success? Then all you need is BlongoBall! BlongoBall can be played outdoors or indoors and is fun for families, physical education classes, team building games or any activity where you want to add a little spark of physical activity. BlongoBall is easy to learn and fun to play for any age from 5 to 105. Includes: 2 BlonGoals (Racks) 2 Sets of BlongoBalls (Yellow and Orange). This is enough for 2 players or 2 Teams. How to Play The rules for playing BlongoBall are simple and easy to learn. Officially the BlonGoals should be 25 feet apart, but one reason the game is so popular with so many different groups is that the distance between goals can also be closer. In a therapy setting or at an elementary school for example, the distance may be significantly reduced. BlongoBalls are thrown by holding one ball in your hand and swinging it slowly back and forth underhanded. When ready, throw the BlongoBall at the opposite goal releasing so the BlongoBall flies with a backward rotation. Points are scored when the BlongoBall hangs from one of the horizontal bars of the BlonGoal. The game is played until one person or team reaches exactly 21 points. You may throw a BlongoBall and knock your opponent's BlongoBall off of a horizontal bar. This removes the corresponding points from your opponent's total and is a legitimate defensive strategy.

 Tons of fun! September 14, 2008

We are adding to our backyard games for when we have company and people like this game. Our neighbors made something similar out of pvc pipe, rope and golf balls and that was fun so when I saw these for sale, I snatched up a set and also ordered extra bongo balls too.
Great family fun! August 13, 2008
This is a fun challenging game for all ages. Trying to reach exactly 21 points puts an interesting challenge to it. It seems like it is sturdy enough to last many years and will definitely add to the fun memories of our summer cabin.
BlongoBall August 11, 2008
Great game! Great fun. BlongoBall game is sturdy; well-made; and so convenient to have the carrying case to keep everything in one place. Perfect for any gathering! It's more popular than horseshoes now because the "girls" can get it on the fun! We're asked to bring it to other BBQs; beach; picnics....so, I know now what I'll be buying for some friends/family for Christmas this year! Everyone just has a blast playing Blongoball. Received the product in perfect condition and it arrived in about 2-3 days! No complaints here! BlongoBall Set in Carry Box Fun for ALL!
 outside fun August 9, 2008
My adult son and I have assembled this and played it, a few times. (Summer in NC to humid) :( . Otherwise the game is fun to play; however the construction instruction seems not as clear. The vertical or ladder rungs section needs to be permanently put together, and the verticals can be taken apart for transport, storage etc. A little more "user friendly" by the engineers, or color coding of the "Permanent" pieces would be helpful.
Blongo Game Review July 25, 2008
This is a fun, family game. It works best when it can be placed in the sand, i.e. beach, river, sand dunes. The only criticism I have is that the "carry box" is just cardboard and will probably not hold up over time, especially if it gets wet. It would be better if the container was a durable and sturdy nylon. I can see I will probably have to replace this box with a plastic container down the road. Overall, this can be played at parties, family get-togethers, etc.
