BLASTBALL!® is meant to put FUN back into the game of Baseball. Designed to generate fast-paced action in a safe environment, BLASTBALL!® captures kids attention and enhances their learning process. Basically, kids learn the game while having a blast doing it!
BLASTBALL!® teaches all five basic fundamentals of baseball and softball - hitting, throwing, catching, running, and fielding - without the complex rules of Baseball.
Objective
BLASTBALL!® is played with a maximum of 5 players per team. The defensive players take an infield or outfield position. A BlastBall is place on the BlastTee and the first batter hits the ball and runs to the BlastBase. If the batter reaches the Base (the only base used) before a defensive player either catches the BlastBall in the air (an automatic out) or fields it and yells "BLAST", the batter scores a run. If the ball is caught or fielded and "BLAST" is yelled before the runner gets to the BlastBase, then the runner is out. It's just that simple!
The BlastBase makes a loud "H O N K" sound (like a train whistle) whenever the runner stomps on the base. Kids love it! Gloves/mitts are not needed because of the softness and size of the BlastBall (about the size of a softball). The fear factor of being hit by the ball is eliminated from the game altogether.
