"Klootschieten" (NL) ("Bosseln" or "Boßeln" in German; "Ball shooting" in English) is a sport in the Netherlands and East Frisia, Northern Germany, most popular in the eastern regions of Twente and Achterhoek. The game is of Frisian origin. To play, participants throw a ball (the kloot) as far as they can, using a relatively difficult throwing style that requires speed, power, and concentration. The sport was banned at times, but achieved a measure of respectability when its first league was established by Hinrich Dunkhase in 1902. The sport is divided into field, street, and standing play. Field and street play typically has two teams playing against each other, while standing play is individual. Stefan Albarus is the current record holder, throwing the ball 106.20 meters.
