By Lisa Hobbie Created: December, 2021 - Modified: August, 2023

Although much like baseball, instead of a bat and traditional ball, like the definition suggests - sticks or broom handles and rubber balls are used. Whether being played in a native american rec center, a school, or in a park setting for a tournament, as in baseball, turf would offer a safe and comfortable surface on which to play.
