A l'illa de La Palma is not a pilot Juga. D'haver tingut few days after finishing volunteer SEO m'haguera bring myself to like Lanzarote, the island where most established when he had collected, which still remains the only, very minor, for playing, though All there was at some other time in history people playing. In fact, in Las Palmas said there is still a street of Ball, and the List of Streets and Parking Las Palmas says "Pursuant to Llámase well in one game that practicaba in it." I visit that archive is still, as I have yet so many places in the hands of people around the world still live This ancient sport in the streets and squares of their peoples; shame that life is not enough.
The arrival of the ball in the Canary Islands date time after the Castilian conquest, giving it assured that the Aborigine people not playing. Again, are the flows that have helped spread the game, as happened in America or the Philippines Basque immigration of the century. Sites in South America where the ball survives today and has many fans, for history of similar games in time of the Mayas and Aztecs and the Incas and all (I think that if the fans both rennet is because those lands were already bias in blood for centuries, although they had stopped practicing the game), but the Canaries, as I said, not found any evidence before arrival the Spaniards, while other traditional Aboriginal games and sports (Canarian fighting, palo ...) does appear in the chronicles. Imagine Basque sailors, good sailors, on board the English ships to conquer new lands, landing eager after the long journey, playing games who knows what port that would host.
be played at the end of the work of the land or the sea, and charge a special prominence holidays, where players and audience moved on foot and donkey paths from their town to that place where he had a heading in a perfect image that I have heard him tell am'auelo here. It also lacked a restorative taking players in the breaks, which would have been very interesting game yesterday at the Circuit Bancaja Guadassuar water, rum, sugar, cinnamon and lime left to macerate for two or three days. Sadly, those times of good health of the island there is nothing left ball, and even that you are in Lanzarote attempts recovery to the other islands are currently unthinkable.
The regulation is quite different, the ball is different, where you play is different, the usual number of five players per team ... many changes in what was probably the original way of playing, if the source is the pelota. But all this in another post I prefer to write in the future who knows if in the near or distant future that could see a live game of ball in Lanzarote.
Before closing, I leave them a fragment of a booklet published by the Center for Popular Culture Canaria fifteen years ago on traditional games canaries, and the small section devoted to the ball says:
Women and pelotamano
This has had its role in the development pelotamano game passively. Although the game did not practice, they suffered the consequences of gambling. So that more than one wife waited patiently for the arrival of her husband, who could be at night or as some used to do, being out on the party that will last. The bride also lost many evenings to be with the loved one, due to the arrest of the groom to play a game of ball.
As seen, things are not so different. And with this, I say goodbye until next week. I'm going to spend the weekend in Val D'Ocon, La Rioja, and Sunday starting at remataré Adarraga (III titin plays!) And later for The Laurel tapeig Logroño. I do not queixe not.
Fronton de San Román de Cameros, La Rioja. January 0 201
In the island of La Palma is not at Ball juego. From having guided by few days after finishing the Volunteer with SEO, I liked hubiera acercarme onto Lanzarote island where the largest implantation had when he arrived, and the only one that still continues, so very minor, playing, though all were at some other point in history people who played. In fact, Las Palmas de Gran Canaria there is still a street called the Ball , and the List of Streets and squares of Plam says "Named under a game that was played in it ." I have, therefore, pending the visit, as many remain to me so many places where the hands of people around the world maintain this ancestral sport alive in the streets and squares of their peoples; shame that a life is not enough.
The arrival of the ball to the Canary Islands dating back to the time after the English conquest, it being certain that the Aborigines did not play. Again, migration flows are those who have contributed to the spread of the game, as in America or the Philippines Basque immigration of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. In the South American locations where the ball survives today and has a great love, a history of similar games at the time of the Mayans and Aztecs and the Incas and those (like me think that if the fans caught on both those lands is because there was already a bias in blood for centuries, but had stopped playing the game), but in the Canaries, as I said, has not found any evidence before the arrival of the Spaniards, while other traditional Aboriginal games and sports (the Canarian wrestling, stick ...) do appear in the chronicles. Imagine Basque sailors, navigators, the English ships engaged in the conquest of new lands, landing hungry after the long journey, playing games in who knows what port to host them.
was played at the end of field work or the sea, and collected a special role the holidays, when players and the public moved on foot and on donkey paths from their town to that in which there should be a heading, an image that perfectly you have heard I can tell my grandfather here. Not missing either a tonic players taking breaks, and that would have very interesting item yesterday by Circuit Bancaixa Guadassuar in water, rum, sugar, cinnamon and lemon left to macerate for two or three days. Sadly, those times of good health of the ball is nothing left insular, and even through in Lanzarote there are attempts at recovery in the other islands are now unthinkable.
The rules are quite different, the ball is different, the place where play is different, the usual number There are five players per team ... many changes that must be the original way of playing, if the source is the pelota. But that would prefer it in another post, write in the future who knows, distant or close, where you can watch a live baseball game in Lanzarote.
Before concluding, I would leave a fragment of a book he edited the Folk Culture Center Canaria fifteen years ago on traditional games, and that the small section devoted to the ball that says

see, things are not so different. And so, goodbye until next week. I'm going to spend the weekend Ocón the Valley, in La Rioja, and remataré on Sunday with a game in Adarraga (¡juego marmosets III!) and later by tapas bars of Logroño The Laurel. I do not complain, no.
