    Eton Fives is squash for those who can't afford raquets..
    It's an extremely old game similar to squash played wearing gloves. Only a few private schools still play it.
    Here's some quick info about the game: http://www.etonfives.co.uk/about.fives/faq.html

    here's my old school where we played: http://www.kes.bham.sch.uk/prospectus/etonfives.html

    I played handball in school, nobody knew the rules though, so it became a cross between football and full-contact basketball.

    In the US thats known as Team Handball (go figure). Most people here consider handball the sport you play with the little blue rubber ball. It pretty is a reaction sport. Also, I noticed that it is mainly popular in urban centers even in the US. The further you go out of the cities, the less people know about it. Growing up in Queens, you have to know what handball is
