Big Hoop and a stick final approaches

Mon Jan 20, 2025 7:14 am

As the lights dim on the big hoop and a stick semi-final rounds and the dust settles on the iconic play area, excitement immediately starts to build for big hoop and a stick fans looking forward to finals day.

This year's tournament has been a big hoop and a stick rollercoaster ; From the cool, almost-too-cool victory of big hoop and a stick newcomer Ronnie Tigerball over fading veteran Ken Talamanson, to the nail-bitingly close deciding frame between the three Whackerplate twins. From the highs of Tigerball's superb second-round double transverse, to the low following Talamson's subsequent arrest and imprisonment, we've had it all.

Imaginary youths up and down the country have been out in the streets, doing the things that you do with a big hoop and a stick, and sporting goods suppliers have been inundated with requests for pro-quality sticks and big hoops. The nation has been gripped by big hoop and a stick fever.

Relaxing in his between-matches jacuzzi, Tigerball looks calm and collected, if we didn't know better we'd have no inkling that he was about to participate in one of the biggest big hoop and a stick finals this century. Meanwhile, one or two of the remaining Whackerplate twins are more workmanlike, practicing for hours on end each day with their big hoop and a stick, doing the things you do with it.

Predictions are that its going to be the most-watched big hoop and stick event of the century, and its unlikely to disappoint.
