Indiaca

What is Indiaca?

Indiaca is a fast-paced and highly dynamic rally game played—much like volleyball and badminton—on a court divided by a net. The game is played with an Indiaca (or Indiaca ball), which is struck with the flat of the hand.

Rules of the Game

Indiaca is a sport played by an even number of people.

Make sure the ball doesn’t hit the ground on your side of the court. You could also call this game “badminton with your hands.”

  • Square playing field with or without a net as a divider
  • The ball is hit with the hand, either from above like the set in volleyball or from below like in badminton, but without a racket

The player serving hits the ball into the opponent’s court. Ideally, the opponents hit it back immediately. However, if it touches the ground, the team that hit the ball scores a point. The other team then serves.
 

The team with the most points wins.
