Yes, American style rounders!!

Better call it North American rounders or PEI will be getting upset about it Whistle

But what about all the Central American and South American players these days??  As far as American Rounders goes the Canadians have far less to shout about than the Dominican Republic does!!! Whistle

I love how Americans have sports that only they play, have a 'World' series and then call themselves World Champions Laugh

My native collegues inform me the rounders is because in the early days there was a magazine called World Series of Rounders or something and that's were the competition originates from.
However, the NFL Doh  Doh Doh and I'm surprised the MLS hasn't called its knockout cup the World Cup yet !!!

SCO don't get me going on the Americas, N America, Central America and South Americas thingy !!!!

I once scored a double rounder (twice round the cones for those that don't follow the great game). Not sure that's in the rules, but I was a hero at school for about 3 days.
