man I remember getting well busted at sports day one year for entering in the 100m hurdles and then dive-rolling over every hurdle along the way.

Was worth it though.

As the late George Carlin said

"Next stop, grade school. Grade school where he wont be able to play tag because it encourages victimization. And he wont be allowed to play dodgeball because its exclusionary and it promotes aggression. Standing around is still ok. Standing around is still permitted, but it wont be for long because sooner or later some kid is gonna be standing around and his foot will fall asleep, and his parents will sue the school and it'll be goodbye f***ing standing around"

Too true. I'm still waiting for it to happen

haha so true

thread needs more cement

and upskirting

This whole thing is so farking rediculous.

Once this came out there was a segment on the Merick Rosso and Kate Richie radio show where people were calling in and talking about crazy rules at their kids schools.

One mother called and said her girls went allowed to take/play elastics at school anymore.
Another mother said that all balls have been banned at the school during student break times (i.e. only have balls the school provide at designated phys ed times). So thats no handball or anything! (Im a big handball fan!)
Anyway, she went on to say the boys are so desperate for something to do they have invented this game where they have to use a school hat as a ball substitute.

I think thats apauling.

i think your spelling is appalling :p

THEY SHOULD BAN HOMEWORK!! LOL

man i remember good old death ball (like hand ball but if u f*** up u gotta run about 50m to to this way, which got increasingly smaller... and on the right was a bunch of windows from class rooms... the amount of shattered windows we collected was pretty impressive.. so were the bowling ball size bruises on our backs from each other throwing the ball :D

was actually having a chat with this to my mum last night.. she's the first aid officer of her workplace, if she physically hands a panadol to someone and something happens to them.. they can legally sue her... whatever happened to consenting to take the pill... sigh the worlds f***ed.

Screw that, they should be telling their kids to ignore stupid rules like that and keep playing the way they should.

I remember playing Wall Brandy at school. So much fun. You had to stand against a wall while one person pegs a tennis ball at everyone against it. Last person who manages not to get hit wins, then becomes the thrower.

yeah I was at primary school at hilliards state about 8 years ago. And I remember we weren't to play handball or anything in breaks.
even before school, we weren't allowed, and f*** me it was boring...

no wonder our kids are fat these days,...

I remember we played handball and someone hit the ball down a stormwater drain and this big unit kid went down to get it and when he was climbing out the gate dropped and sliced half of his middle finger of, it was f***ing henious and he was all like "AUAUUUGGGHHHHHRRRGGHHH" i could hear him from way down in the sandpit where me and Fraser used to hang out and tell Abo jokes

They didnt ban handball tho.

Dead duck ;)

That game was crazy... I remember the thrower used to do a fake peg, and everyone would turn and duck and curl up... then he would pop someone right in the back of the head or the spine. We used to play it sooo close to the wall (probably just over 5m) that the tennis ball would make a massive THWACK next to your face like a gunshot.

We were playing that game all the way through to grade 12, there was a retarded kid that would come play with us, so many LOL's.

The game wasn't even really fun, it was just brutal.
