What is Futnet?
Futnet (nohejbal in Czech) is a Czech-invented sport that plays like volleyball but with football skills — the ball may only be struck with the feet, head, chest or thighs, never the hands. Games are contested singles, doubles or triples over a low 1.10 m net. The Federation of International Futnet holds biennial world championships.
