Here you find papers, essays, poems, pictures and books about ancient golf and its kindred games, including non-related stick and ball games. Every month under 'What's new', you can expect a new publication, reproduced unabridged in the originally written and published language.
 
Geert Nijs (alas deceased in 2018) & Sara Kieboom-Nijs, sport historians, have specialised in the history of the continental kindred games and published several books.
