Introduction
 
Woodball is a lawn game that encourages friends to enjoy the fun of playing ball in the green field with sunshine and great scene. The sport is popular among all the universities in Hong Kong due not only to the well-designed equipment, which includes ball, mallet and gate, but to the simplicity of learning and playing. Many techniques used in woodball is same as golf including stance, posture and swing. The key difference between them is that woodball is far heavier than a golf ball to limit it only rolling on the grass. In general, a woodball course contains 12 fairways with gates and winner is generated by who completes these gates with the fewest strokes.
