Medieval Ball Games

The medieval ball can be described as a ball that is of various sizes and shapes. It is usually played in teams with at least two players. The players may be equipped with a mace or chain or a flail weapons. The aim is to knock the opponents over in a quick time. This game is usually played indoors.

Cambok

Cambok is a medieval sport with a twist. It is not the same as Junkyard Sports. Cambok comes from the bent shepherd’s pole, which is used to play the game.

Mace and chain

A mace and chain in medieval ball combat have two important benefits: the swing and the power of the mace. A mace is more powerful than a leather ball and can increase speed. It also forces the fighter's whole body to move in the same direction. Flailing can make the rebound hit more difficult. However, the chain can be easily broken or wrapped around a larger weapon.

Flail weapon

Consider buying a medieval ball flail to recreate the medieval game of ball. These weapons were often used to strike an opponent with devastating force. A medieval ball flail is a small wooden shaft with two spherical striking ends. The length of the wooden shaft can vary from one to four feet and the shape of the spiked ball may be cylindrical or spherical. The handle is usually made from wood and has a leather cord, or cuff. A double-chain flail features a long flexible handle and a doubled-chained striking heads, which gives it a double impact. This weapon is quite heavy and requires lots of control.
