SINGAPORE: Woodball is a little-known sport in Singapore, but enthusiasts and those new to the game can now sharpen their swinging skills at a new woodball course at Punggol Park.
The game is a little like golf, except with a much bigger wooden ball, which you hit with a mallet.
The new woodball course was launched by Aljunied GRC MP George Yeo at a healthy lifestyle event on Sunday morning.
About 1,000 residents joined in various activities, including tai-chi. Many also put on their walking shoes for a stroll around the park's new nature trail.
