Hello
We are about to found northern europes first club for the ancient game basque pelota in sweden. It's a tough game that fits our northern european mentality well. Watch this link if you don't know what it is.

Now I would like to challenge everyone in Finland to start a club as well, because I'm not sure who are the toughest, the swedes or the finns. I think we should decide that on the pitch
contact us at

Pelottava = scary, Pelottaa = being afraid, Eikö sinua
pelota? = Arent you afraid?
So sounds bit scary sport

Well, hitting that hard ball is scary to me.
Don't like the idea of hitting the ball with ma hands!! You wear hand wraps don't you?
Until that day - I will stick to sky bounce!
