Bacon board

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Bacon board is a tennis-like sport based in Münsterland . This is played on ash and asphalt pitches. The court is slightly smaller than a tennis court (20 m long, 9 m wide, with half a meter on each side reserved for doubles ). The racket consists of a wooden board with a handle (originally like a cutting board from the kitchen, today with many drilled holes in a grid-like arrangement, no strings). A tennis ball is used as the ball . The counting is based on table tennis .

There are three bacon board clubs in Münster (or sports clubs with bacon board departments) and one club in Berlin .
