<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\nMagus along with his sailor friends played BOLTB\u00d3L<\/strong> in life action, Teams were divided into groups of 12 each. A man was there who would kick the ball toward the player on the other side and the game started. <\/p>\n\n\n\nThere would be two courts where the ball needs to be placed. Whichever side scored more in the opposite court will win the title. This sounds like soccer right, but wait there is a catch, even if the team scores, the goal doesn’t count unless the player who scored a goal did not bat a ball within the first 5 minutes. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
So the player who scored the goal forgets that he needs to bat too or misses the ball thrown from the other player, the goal would be discarded. So imagine the adrenaline and the mind agility that you have to be in to score the goal, remember that you have to bat and don’t miss it too. That makes this game one of a kind and we think it’s beautiful. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/span>Popularity of BOLTB\u00d3L<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\nAccording to our knowledge, it is popular in certain regions of the country and not everywhere. The government of Iceland has recognized this spot as one of its originals, but we have yet to see it going big and international.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Yes, there are regions in Iceland where people live and breathe this sport. But it still has a long way to go and be recognized as an international sport. Reykjavik, Vesturbaer, and Seltjarnarnes are the areas where this game has been played as a daily driver\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
