WELCOME HOME This website is de dicated to the sport of "FOOTBAG" (known widely though incorrectly as "Hacky Sack") and to the healing, dancing and playful impulses aroused in us when we play. The Story of the "Footbag Peace" project... ...During the 80's while working as a volunteer carpenter, performer and "peace emissary" in Central America - and later coupled with my passion for playing and making footbags - I, (Daniel Botkin) was initially inspired to start this project to promote non-violence and ethnic tolerance in and with Central America . That unique 1988-89 adventure by six young futbolitistas was a symbol of our desire to shepherd a more peaceful, tolerant world. We hoped to show that common citizens can (and should) find creative ways to be "political" and attempt to affect change. That original FPI campaign generated a video documentary, several return "peace voyages" back to Guatemala, and eventually to this website. Although the concepts have remained similar, these days

Extractions: FOOTBAG WORLDWIDE : OVERVIEW The Sport of Footbag Footbag is a growing sport, played mostly in North America (United States and Canada), though there are a rapidly growing number of footbag clubs and players around the world. Frequently referred to as "Hacky Sack" (a product manufactured by Wham-O, Inc.), footbag has existed as a competitive sport in several forms since the 1970's. There are a substantial number of footbag tournaments and festivals each year. Competitive footbag is governed by the International Footbag Committee (IFC), which publishes the official Rules of Footbag Sports The most popular competitive footbag sports are Footbag Net and Freestyle Footbag Net Footbag Net is a singles or doubles court game, like tennis or volleyball, where players use only their feet to kick the footbag over a five-foot-high net. The rules for doubles net are a lot like volleyball: players are allowed three kicks per side, and must alternate kicks. In singles, however, players are only allowed two kicks per side.
Extractions: Designed by Julie A. Bolduc The design of this hacky sack was was first drawn as a picture by my 13 yr old step son after he found the pellets in Wal-Mart for me. I guess I owe him one so I let him draw a picture of what he wanted his hacky sack to look like. This is the result of that drawing. In order to be able to get the right look, I made the sack slightly bigger than normal. A normal size hacky sack is around 2" in diameter and this one is 2½" in diameter. But my stepson still likes it! :) Materials Needed:

Extractions: by Deb Cleere The first inductees in the Footbag Hall of Fame are: Garwin Bruce - Garwin Bruce established himself as one of the top players in the late '70s and early '80s. He also made his mark as one of the finest coaches the game has ever known. Garwin toured through western United States in the early '80s, demonstrating and promoting the sport. His administrative accomplishments include service as Vice President of the National Hacky Sack Association, and his repeated commitment as a staff-member of the U.S. Open Championships in Portland. Gary Gamon - Gary is living proof that not all promotional activity originated in the United States' Pacific Northwest. This man was instrumental in popularizing footbag in the state of Texas. Pushing Kenny Shults to three games in the Soc Sac Championships is just one of the highlights of Gary's competitive career that spanned from 1978 to 1992. Gary's work in bringing footbag to areas of the country far removed from the mainstream of footbag events, and his dedication in organizing tournaments and festivals, mark him as a true pioneer. Craig Hufford - Craig grew up in the Portland area, kicking a footbag as a youngster. He and Jerry Cunningham dominated doubles net in every tournament they entered. His dedication and love of the sport shone through in his performances as a touring team member.

The Bad Fads Museum - Hacky Sack The hacky sack was invented in 1972 when John Stalberger met Mike Marshalland observed him kicking around a handmade beanbag. Stalberger http://www.badfads.com/pages/activities/hackysack.html
Extractions: As players of Hacky Sack attempt to keep the ball off the ground by using their knees and feet, certain competitions are held to see who can do so the best. The world record holder for consecutive "kicks," kicked the sack 63,326 in eight hours, fifty minutes and forty two seconds on June 14, 1997. Hacky Sack competitions continue as does the game's popularity. Perhaps its acclaim is due to the comedy that accompanies the attempts to keep the small beanbag in the air, or perhaps it is just another pleasurable way to waste away the day.
