ERASMUS+ week in Germany - BUBBLE BALL COMPETITION

In the ERASMUS+week there was a big BubbleBall competition in the context with the sports day at friday. It was the first babble ball competition at the Mittelschule Gochsheim. All classes took part and the guest students played as the ERASMUS+ team.
The rules could be explained very fast and so the competition could start quickly. It was of course unusual and extraordinary to be putted in a large bubble and try to reach the ball to kick it into the goal.  All made the experience that it is not only a lot of fun to play BubbleBall but it is also  exhausting and not so easy like it seams.
