A Long Beach Island NJ Original
A Lifetime of History
Long Beach Island, or LBI, has been at the heart of our family for over a century, with extended family living on the island and countless summer vacations filled with fun outdoor activities. We often enjoy various beach games, including beach bocce and what came to be Horse Balls, making our time together truly special.
How It Started
Over 45 years ago, my (Pete - Founder) parents took us to a Harlem Globetrotters game, and we returned with a small souvenir rubber basketball that eventually ended up in our beach toys. One hot day at the beach, with us, the kids being restless and underfoot, my father decided to create a fun beach game. He dug two holes and pitted us against each other to see who could make the most shots, and that’s how 'Horse Balls' was born, adding a new twist to beach trips!
Present Day
Over the years, we have refined the game with the concepts of beach bocce, cornhole, and horseshoes with simple rules and friendly competition. Today, it has become a beloved beach game and we are excited to share it with other beach-loving families. This allows us to continue a legacy that celebrates family, fun, and the spirit of LBI and beach games like Horse Balls. Enjoy!
