International fronton

International fronton is a sport that is played in many countries around the world. It is kind of like a mix between tennis and handball, and it is played on a really big court that has walls on three sides.

The point of the game is to hit a small, hard ball (called a pelota) against the wall in a way that makes it difficult for your opponent to return it. Each player or team takes turns hitting the ball and trying to score points by making the other person miss.

The court is divided into several areas, and the ball has to bounce in certain areas of the court before the other person can hit it back. There are also rules about where you can stand and how you have to hit the ball.

International fronton requires a lot of athleticism and skill, because the ball can travel really fast and you have to be able to move around the court quickly to hit it. It is exciting to watch and play, and can be a lot of fun!
