Fun fact : A lot of our favourite sports use leaping. Athletic events; long jump, triple jump, high jump and hurdles use leaping to get us over the line and over the bar.

Can you think of more sports or daily activities that could be useful?

This game requires confidence, control and coordination to leap your way to victory.

This game can be modified to change the difficulty by changing the distance and increasing the number of hoops.
