Re: Twenty Questions - Game 181
So if I have understood Damo's answers correctly, we need a sportsperson who is not an Olympian, who is known for playing a ball sport, but that ball sport is not:
- Soccer
- Rugby
- Cricket
- Basketball
- Golf
- Snooker
- Pool
- Handball
- Soccer
- Rugby
- Cricket
- Basketball
- Golf
- Snooker
- Pool
- Handball
