Child Wrangler

Here's a picture of my favorite child wrangler: Dan knew just how to entertain the kids--invent a violent cross between baseball, drive-way kickball, and croquet. Thusly, Hammerball (so named for the hammer like shape of the croquet mallet) was born. Here, Dan points one of my younger cousins towards second base, right before his team got beaten soundly by the opposition. Leave it to a few 8 year olds to take competition seriously.

This sounds oddly entertaining. Are there rules or do you make them up as you go along?

I know there are rules...I just don't know what they are...they seemed rather complicated to me, and I didn't get involved in the action, just watched and tried to make sense of it all...
