English: BANDANESE SOCCER, SOUTHERN MALUKU ISLANDS
Jacob van Heemskerck put in at Banda in 1599, while his colleague Van Warwijck sailed to Ambon and Ternate. "Keeping the ball aloft" was the name of this Bandanese game. Use of the hands was not allowed. The young Bandanese stand in a circle and pass the ball to each other using their feet. The Dutch are not participating, but stand on the side cheering the players on. Title: Fashion and style of a ballgame of those from Banda Text: Those from Banda play in the following manner with the ball plenty of them are standing in a circle one of them stands in the middle he throws the ball into the air and then the one who gets the ball first hits it to his other companions which they do with their feet because they don't need their hands and those who mishit or don't hit the ball right are being laughed at and taunted several jump in the air the others turn around and still know how to pass the ball skillfully this is a very honorable game to them. Their balls with which they play are made out of twisted branches and almost look like a sphere. Here is also an illustration how those from Bada face their enemies in war in one hand they hold a general shield and in the other one several spears which they throw with extraordinary skills out of their hands and when they are out of those they take their saber which they call Padang and which they hide behind their shield they cause great damage to each other with those. |
