Bossaball is a beach sport that was invented in 2003 by Felip Eyckmans. The Belgian born athlete decided to turn volleyball into an extreme four-on-four sport that would take place on an inflatable court with a trampoline on each side of the net. This allows for higher and faster spikes and some breathtaking acrobatics. Each team is allowed five volleys before the ball must be sent back to the other side. Bossaball, while not as popular as volleyball, has a large following and has spread worldwide, with competitions happening anywhere there is a sandy and sunny beach available and waiting for a good time.
