    I like it. Maybe we need to form a partnership with a local rounders team to fully emmulate the model?

    I'm thinking of setting up a Kerby team, happy to set up a meeting with The Don to discuss.

    Yes! I'm in. I grew up on a cul-de-sac, the perfect training ground. That should have been our new Olympic sport. Gold, silver and bronze

    I'm genuinely considering setting up a league. Just spent a week acting like a ten year old on Summer Holiday laiking Kerby and eating crisp sandwiches. Quality.

    Extreme kerby on Dodworth Road would be oreight.

    What rules you using?

    1 point for hitting the kerb. 2 points for hitting the kerb and catching it.

    Re: What rules you using?

    2 points if you step out into the road to catch it.

    3 points if stay on your side of the kerb and catch it.

    And if you hit you go to the middle of the road and score until you miss

    Bang on with a few added in.

    If other kid hits kerb and you catch it he loses that point.

    Played to 11, 10 a piece and you had to hit your kerb first and then hit the other to win. Tie break.

    Summer lane it is. Extra points for avoiding the dogshite.

    Some huge dogs live round there considering some of the deposits on the pavement

    But could we make it in to a triathlon event, we could incorporate kick can and British bulldog in to it.
