Bikeball is a hybrid sport that combines elements of soccer, rugby, and bicycling. Players must use a specialized bike to score goals within three touches in a rugby-style arc, on a 500-meter field made of special material. Teams consist of 5 players each and matches last 90 minutes, with rules around touching the ball, fouls, and contact between players. The authors are interested in bikeball because it combines their interests in rugby, soccer, and bicycling, and requires safety gear like a specialized suit and helmet.
