Headis - New Way To Play Table Tennis
Headis is a fun, easy-to-play sport, pretty similar to table tennis, only you have to hit the ball with your head. All you need to play headis is a regular tennis table and a special rubber ball with special bouncing properties and that is probably the main reason why the sport is played by more people every day.
Headis was invented in 2006, by Rene Wegner, a sports science student at the University of Saarbruecker, in Germany. Because the football field was occupied, Wegner started hitting a football back and forth on a tennis table, with a fellow student. That's when he got the idea for a new sport that soon spread throughout Germany.
While it may seem very similar to table tennis, headis is actually more comparable to badminton. Since players have to get behind and underneath the ball, they workout all parts of the body, at all times.
