Hard Plastic Balls

Hi,

Im looking to buy some firm plastic balls about the size of tennis balls only made of plastic or PVC.

Like a road hockey ball or something. I need this to play bike polo but all the sports store only sell footballs or tennis balls. I think a field hockey ball might also be a good alternative.

Ive call around and looked in a few shops with no luck. If anyone has any ideas where I could find something like this please let me know!

I was evening thinking of looking at pet shops for a dog toy ball!!!

Any ideas would be super great!

THIS IS IDEALY WHAT I AM LOOKING FOR : http://www.franklinsports.com/fsm/b2c/streethockey/2010/12209.html

Thanks,
Jesse

Actually... I thought about it when I was writing the Subject line. I figured it was a bit of a hook to get more people to read the topic. Either to laugh at it, look at it to see if its offensive or to contribute to the potential low brow humour.

So far so goo d:) I think I found a cricket ball at Olympic. Ill be picking it up tomorrow morning. Ill let you all know how it goes. Thanks for the help all... even if you didnt find the balls you were looking for. heh

I clicked on this thinking it was going to be some sort of joke.

I have been reading this thread, and I have not laughed harder in my life watching you discuss your balls and where to get some.

Thx.... but the are just a little lighter then I need. Although filling a couple garbage bags to make my own ball room has always been a dream

okay i will try. I tried to call yesterday but the auto answering machine was not helpful in getting me to a real person. I'll give it a shot tonight. I'll let you know my findings. Thanks....

Anyone else have an idea?

Try and visit Olympic Sport in Doha Jadeed. It is just past the sword signal if you're coming from the souq. you will see it on your right side before you reach the next signal.
