Indiaca balls and accessories for a dynamic game
For ten years, volleyball had been her life – the jumps at the net, the receptions, the cheers after winning a set. But then persistent knee problems forced her to stop. To stay fit, she discovered yoga and fitness hula hoops. Both did her good, kept her flexible, and strengthened her core. Yet as much as she enjoyed the calm yet demanding yoga sessions on her yoga training mat, they could not replace the thrill of a rally and the experience of team sport.
When a colleague mentioned the game of Indiaca one day, her interest was immediately piqued. The sport had many similarities to volleyball: fast rallies, tactical plays, but far more gentle on the joints. That very same day, she asked if she could join a trial session. After just the first few rallies in training, she knew it: the dynamic nature of the game truly reminded her of volleyball – but instead of passing with her forearms, she hit the feather-light ball over the net with the palm of her hand. The movements felt natural, and the technique was quick to learn. Just a few weeks later, she was on the court at her first tournament and finally felt again what she had missed for so long. And yoga? It remains part of her sports routine as mobility training.

Promoting fitness, coordination, and team spirit
What began as a traditional sport among the indigenous peoples of South America now inspires athletes all over the world. In Switzerland, the Indiaca scene is steadily growing – whether at tournaments or spontaneous games with friends in the park. The sport combines the best qualities of various net and striking games: the dynamism of volleyball, the precision of badminton, and the accessibility of shuttlecock play. At the same time, Indiaca is pleasantly easy on the joints – a decisive advantage over many other ball sports. Since the ball is played with the flat hand, there is no strain caused by heavy rackets. The low ball weight of just 30 to 50 grams allows for long training sessions without fatigue of the arm and shoulder muscles.
Nevertheless, this dynamic sport challenges the entire body: quick changes of direction train the leg muscles, striking techniques strengthen arms and shoulders, and constant awareness of the game improves reaction speed. At the same time, you enhance your hand-eye coordination and develop a refined feel for the ball. Best of all, you train without feeling it as strenuous effort. Fun is at the heart of this sport. Whether with friends, in a regular playing group, or at local tournaments: Indiaca brings people together.
