Cherokee Elementary, Arizona
"The students loved it! I have never seen them this excited about any game in PE... I have had a ton of parents talk to me about, “This new game in PE.” I was also amazed at the level of play of my older students. By the end, they looked like they had been playing it for years. What I really liked about Sabakiball was that the students that normally are not very active, enjoyed it. The lesser athletic students were out there taking charge, running, having a great time. That one factor alone should make every PE teacher want to include Sabakiball in their curriculum." - Michael Wacaser |

"Hi Michael-san, we met and played Sabakiball when I was a visiting teacher at Redfield Elementary School. The students were able to grasp the rules so much quicker than I anticipated and there was so much running! Even though the weather was cool the students were shedding their coats and having so much fun. Some things I love about Sabakiball are the simple rules and that there is no need for large goals and the Sabakiball equipment is very portable making it easy to set up and play indoors or outside." - Yumi Furumoto (Japan) |

"We loved the game, and it will be a great addition to the PE classes in Maine. Hopefully there will be much growth and interest to expand the game including tournaments, open gym play, recreation departments offering it as another sport, etc. and my students (all future PE teachers) have volunteered to teach and referee the game in the schools they visit for clinical experience and student teaching." - Cindy Connelley |
