The story

On planet Candelia, children learn to play swooshball as soon they can walk. The game is all about hitting the targets behind your opponent's back. At the centre of the court, there is a magnetic field. If the ball comes close to one of its centres it changes direction. Patrick Polly has learnt to use this to his advantage. A tip is that you do the same.
