We would play indoor team handball in gym class at my high school.
Basically, we would use a volleyball, two hockey goals with nets, 6 players to a team (5 position and 1 goalie) and you could only take two steps with the ball or else it's a traveling -- once you stop and start again -- it's also a turnover.
I was so good -- that people would ask to go to the bathroom, snag the hall pass, and hurry down to the gym to watch me play.
Before me, all of the other people who played goalie "stayed at home" and guarded the net. I was technically a goalie, but also a forward on offense who would leave the net wide open at the other end of the gym.
If I ever get rich -- I have made a vow to have a bronzed statue erected of me playing handball in gym class -- and I will pay the school to let me put it on the front lawn.
