Schnürles
Schnürles is a game that is widespread in North Baden and is similar to soccer tennis. The name goes back to the Pforzheim football idol of the 1920s Fritz Schnürle , who invented the game while working as a coach at 1. FC Pforzheim and made it known regionally.
The field at the Schnürles is 8 × 16 m and is divided in the middle by a rope stretched 50 cm high. Each team has four players. They try to play the ball to the opponent in such a way that he cannot play it back in accordance with the rules.
