Its apparently real. Nuts did a feature on it about a year ago. They do a certain amount of time on the board then don boxing gloves for a certain time. U obviously win by checkmate or knockout

I suppose it's a whacky version of biathlon. i see why they start with the round of chess, there could be some hardass who comes along and KOs everyone before the chess round begins...

Netball is the most absurd. Chase, the ball, chase the ball, get the ball QUICK, QUICK get rid of it.....honestly its like being a Bolton centre half.

yeah stupid game, usually all they have to do is throw it to the token 6'4 hulkwoman and some poor normal sized girl is left flapping trying to defend the inevitable goal.
I remember the delights of perving at the netball at Uni whilst simultaneously playing 5 aside, what scheduling.
