Abstract

A kick ball game is described in which a number of balls are kicked from a prescribed distance toward a number of dimensioned holes/target areas in a horizontal box positioned between upright side supports members which are retained in perpendicular angularity to the overlying and underlying support surface members. Each of the dimensioned holes/target areas in the horizontal box are set in a vertical direction along the side supports member and secured in the desired position inside the horizontal box[es]. In this fashion the distance between the dimensioned holes/target areas are fixed and cannot be altered. Alternative embodiments of the game are also contemplated where the distance between the horizontal box[es] is varied to increase or decrease the level of difficulty.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
I claim: 
     
         1 . I, Colin Andrew McCormick, claim McCormick's Floor Ball (Mic's Ball) as a kick ball game involving the kicking of an article toward an object in order to score points by having the article rest inside or pass through one or more target areas of the object comprising;
 a. A singular or pair of horizontal box[es] made of side support members perpendicular to an overlying support member and underlying support member which creates a series of not less than three (3) dimensioned holes/target areas at predetermined points inside the horizontal box[es]; and   b. A number of balls, in a series of dimensioned size, whereby the number of balls are kicked from one or more prescribed distances at the horizontal box[es] in order to rest or pass through the said dimensioned holes/target areas scoring points for those balls passing through the dimensioned holes/target areas or resting inside said dimensioned holes/target areas at the end of a series of kicks by a number of players.   
     
     
         2 . The kick ball game of  claim 1 , wherein the distance between the horizontal box[es] may be varied to increase or decrease the level of difficulty and skill in passing the balls through, or resting the balls inside the dimensioned holes/target areas in the horizontal box[es].
