TLDR: Spikeball™ = the brand.
Roundnet = the sport.
So you've heard this word 'roundnet' floating around and, because you are a clever human, have guessed it has something to do with a round net. The term roundnet was coined a few years ago to distinguish the sport from the brand, Spikeball.
Why? Well in order to grow the brand and the sport globally, it's important to secure trademarks and limit liability. Separating the sport from the brand also allows the sport to grow more organically e.g. people can set up roundnet governing bodies & tournaments.
Spikeball™ vs. Roundnet - A User's Guide
How you should use the terms Spikeball™ and Roundnet
Cheat Sheet
Spikeball™ = the brand. Roundnet = the sport.
Here's a little Q&A to clear things up:
Q: Can I say something like, "Let's go play Spikeball™"?
A: It's better to say roundnet. If you're using Spikeball™ equipment, that's fine. But, if you're playing on another brand's roundnet gear, "Spikeball™" is incorrect.
Q: Can I use Spikeball™ in my club or team's name?
A: No. Any non-official clubs or teams must use "roundnet" unless authorized by Spikeball™ Inc.
How Spikeball™ Inc. uses the terms
We follow the same rules as you, using Spikeball™ for the brand and roundnet for the sport. This helps maintain our trademark and grow both the brand and the sport globally.
Right, this has all got far too technical and boring.
Enough reading - get out there and play some roundnet... on a Spikeball kit 😉
