I certainly intend on doing so.

I know football, basketball, baseball, hockey, soccer, and what ever else you can think of have all been around for decades to centuries. And I want to be appart of that.

That's why I've begun creating something brand new for the sports world. About two and a half years on the drawing board, I want to introduce the world to NETBALL.

Explain!

I'd love to run my own sports league, create a new sport, or start a new league with some already current "sport" that currently hasn't been turned into a league yet.. like flickerball or arena kickball. (or outdoors, take your pick)

- This sport would involve throwing and kicking (not football)
- This sport would feature nets divided into sections, which would = different points in the range of 1-10.
- This could be played indoors AND outdoors...

Really, the same way ALL sports have been created.... with a bunch of guys or girls getting together with someone's idea for a game. Like Dr. James Naismith with basketball.

As for paying any fees, I'd believe the only thing you'd really need to buy are materials for what it is you have in mind. You need a place to play it, which also doesn't have to cost anything. Look at the first football game, played in an open field.

NFL = National Football League.
AFL = Australian Football League (or American Football League) ...not quite the same!
