AND a lil extract

) is a play decreasing/going back to heidnische tradition, which is played on Orkney in Kirkwall (principal place) for centuries to Christmas and to the turn of the year. To both dates one “Men's each Ba” and a “Boys' Ba” takes place. Also in the Scottish boron the region (Selkirk, Duns, Jedburgh, Melrose, Roxburgh) and Scone in Perthshire this play is played according to completely similar “rules”.

There is hardly firm regulating and no delimitation of the player number. Usually approximately 300 inhabitants play also. The crews of the southern part of the town (Uppies) play against those the north city in Kirkwall (Doonies); both crews are strengthened out completely today also by players Orkney, which sympathize to other team with or. Around 13:00 clock begins the play before the cathedral as the Ba' - in such a way one calls the ball - into the quantity is thrown. The playing field is the whole city (for some years however with exception of the pc. Magnus cathedral). A goal of the play is to be transported it the Ba' across the city to one of the two gates. These lie apart more than one mile; the Uppie gate is a house wall, the Doonie gate the harbor basin. Won the crew, which plays the Ba in the own “gate”; however only one player of the winner crew receives the Baa as Siegertrophäe, on whom the “play leaders/speaker” of both teams informed themselves as a “particularly important player for the play process”.

Attempts, after that 2. To establish, failed to world war a “Women's Ba” after few approaches.

In the last years there were attempts to forbid the play because of its gameness and the injury risks. 2001 took up the Orkney Iceland Council by the Edinburgher central administration outgoing initiative. The topic was within days of the table, when the politicians it became clear that they are dependent on people tendency and want to be red-elect sometime.

It is conceivable that the today relatively unblutige meeting was originally a celtic ritual, which, instead of with a ball, was possibly played with Steinkugeln found (on Orkney) and possibly for one the player deadly ended. Similar plays are well-known from other world areas.
