Related sports Speed golf is sometimes contrasted with Cross-country BigBall, in which players use soccer balls and baseball bats to reach a goal. Because the course and goals are chosen by the participants, Cross-country BigBall etiquette varies depending on whether the theater is a wooded or residential area. Both sports require substantial physical stamina. Speed disc golf is similar in concept and rules to speed golf. The biathlon (skiing and shooting a rifle) is also sometimes compared to speed golf.
