Kronum is a new sport that combines elements of football, rugby, basketball, handball and even Quidditch to create what players are hoping grows to become the first big league sport created in over a century.
Personally, I think organizers may have hurt themselves right off-the-bat by creating a sport with a circular field, very unique goals and ball, plus rules that appear to be quite difficult to grasp at a glance.
Obviously, the custom-designed chambers with the crown rings will provide the biggest obstacle to forming your own Kronum league, but that’s not stepping the Kronum League brain trust from trying to form leagues anywhere they’ll have them.
Sports like football and basketball are extremely complicated too once you get into them but the basics of the game are easy to pick up and can be played with as few as two or three players – one-on-one and games like Pig for a simplified form of basketball or just running routes over and over, with or without a defender, as a simplified form of football.
I’m not sure what the simplified form of Kronum would look like which is another reason I have doubts about its long term success.
But anyhow, they make a pretty cool video…
