So, I'm shooting around with two Canadians at the University of Alberta. We all want to get some sort of game going, but there's no sign of a fourth player for two on two.
In my universe, that means it's time for a game of 21. But this is isn't my universe. This is Canada. Here they play "King's Court," something I've never heard of. I thought it might have something to do with being part of the British Commonwealth, but then, that would be "Queen's Court," right?
King's Court is a game of one-on-one that's constantly rotating, so that the person that loses a point sits out while the other two player a game of one-on-one to one. The person who wins the point is the king. You go to 11, constantly rotating. The hardest thing about this game is that you only get four dribbles.
I played with an ex-All Canada, semi-pro player who kicked our asses. Then we played 21, which I had to teach them. I I still lost.
