Project
"A game," that's how we sum up the solution to the problem of loss of bone density and boredom in space. It's not as childish as it seems calling it a game and in fact that's what our solution is. A sport that puts resistance on different areas of the body. Mainly using bungee cords for resistance this form of tether ball gives a great work out.
SPACE SLAM
Space Slam is designed to be played on earth with a low goal at the top of a tether pole, and also in zero gravity environments with a goal at either end of the tethered pole as the directions up and down are irrelevant in zero gravity, While secured to a mini trampoline using resistance bands designed to increase strength and impact, players must bump, hit, or kick a tethered ball towards the goal at the opposite end of a pole. This game can be played with one or more players and has different configurations for offense and defense depending on the number of players in a game. The sport has been designed to add interest and competition to otherwise tedious workout regimes required by astronauts as they prepare for and work out in space.
SCORING SYSTEM
Number of players and goal configuration is dependent of Phase of play either on earth or in Zero/Micro Gravity. SEE PHASE PLAN
