INTRODUCTION

  

1. THE NAME: DOONEE means "Universal Sport" and this name points to the true intention of this new sport: to become universal in its extension, application and benefits.

2. THE SPORT: DOONEE consists of two teams sending themselves a special ball denominated "COR", from one side to another of the field. COR means "Heart" and is played only with hands. "When you play DOONEE you are sending your heart (the best of you) to the rest".

3. THE COURT: DOONEE needs a court with TWO PARALLEL SPORT NETS centrally located, at a height of six or more feet, each one. The size of DOONEE's court is similar to that used in Volley-ball.

 

          

VIEW  IN  PERSPECTIVE

 

4. THE BALL: It is also new the use of a ball being conformed by 3 resistant and concentric "flexible rubber rings". This very particular and bright design allows you to easily grab and send this ball that gives you a total "flight path control"  and high security for the rest

5. HOW DO WE PLAY IT? DOONEE is played, between two teams, by sending the COR from one side to another of the court. During the game between experts, the ball gives the impression of being a BIRD doing evolutions in the air, without stopping, nor hurrying too much, raising and lowering, going and returning, without touching the ground, enjoying the flight, describing wonderful curves, without hitting against any object and agilely drawing out from all obstacles for a long time. As well, DOONEE players seems to be dancing to the compass of an inaudible music.

6. MEASURES and WEIGHTS: All the measures and weights in this sport are only suggested values and, for that reason, they do not have to be taken as definitive. Soon, it will correspond the top authorities of DIF (DOONEE INTERNATIONAL FEDERATION) to fix and to establish definitive measures and weights for this very new sport.

 

GENERAL CONSIDERATIONS

 1. Really pays the attention that, in centuries of mankind's intense sport activity, our most remarkable investigators had totally ignored the enormous benefits produced by the use of "heavy balls" played through the air between two sport teams.

2. DOONEE is a new sport created on totally solid, deep, wise and different bases, in its fundamental parts. In addition, DOONEE introduces a serie of new elements to the field of the sports, with the noble intention to benefit all sportsmen worldwide, in a very ample and healthy way.  

3. Hundreds of sports play with balls. In all of them we find a great abundance of "very primitive elements": kicks, knocks, shoots, blows, streight lines movements, sudden haltings, tackles, accelerations, blocks, fouls, hits, bats, etc. These very primitive elements are extremely negative to all human beings because of its violence and they are totally discarded in DOONEE.

4. To all individuals that are deeply
human, it corresponds to love and to live agreed with the highest UNIVERSAL LAWS of kindness, peace, respect and bondage to all other beings. This, lamentably, is not respected by all these ancient sports played with balls. But DOONEE deeply obeys all these so important laws.

5. DOONEE is a sport similar to all modern sports; he is attractive and healthful and has, in addition, a projection and perspective that are difficult to imagine so far, undoubtly. Nevertheless, it is to hope that people world-wide will allowed him to occupy the high place that corresponds to a superior sport, scientifically created and well inspired.

6. It's our duty to clarify that the sport now given is the Physical DOONEE. It exists, in addition, the Mental DOONEE, also practiced with a similar ball (although heavier). This Mental DOONEE is no longer a SPORT but rather is a singular and deep ART, whose study, dominion and mastery require years of constant practice and inner discipline.  

7. DOONEE really does not looks like any sport you have seen or known previously. Nevertheless, when you play DOONEE you realize that he is more interesting and more valuable than most of sports you knew before. 

DOONEE is, in addition, the gratuitous contribution of their creator, Mr.  Lionel Garreton, to the many sports practiced by mankind.
