Field crumpets is a two-team ball sport in which players wield colorful, fat, plastic bats and try to hit a cartoon-covered playball into their opponents' goal. Set on a rectangular backdrop informed by hockey and soccer, the rules are a mix of unique and traditional elements, and the gameplay is something like having feral racket players unleashed on a grassy field.
