Oina +

“Play Oina!: Romanians Say Their Game Inspired Creation of Baseball,” Oneonta Times, March 29, 1990. “Oina – Perhaps it was Baseball’s Grandfather,” World Leisure and Recreations Association Bulletin, September-October 1973. http://www.romania-insider.com/forgotten-romanian-national-sport-oina-baseball/ [This source states that oina became the national sport officially in 2014, but is endangered today and is "almost forgotten," with only 25 village clubs active. It also claims that the sport has been documented in the 1300s. The sport was declared compulsory in Romanian schools in 1897.] Several Youtube videos describe Oina (if you find others, let us know). Most of the following were scouted out by John Thorn, and submitted in an email to Protoball on 1/19/2017: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pw8abRh7OjY [English, <3 mins. An oina preservation campaign is sustained by two photographers who have produced a photobook for sale.] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w6gzU3vH4XA [Non-English, >6 mins. An inspired schematic representation that manages to convey many of the rules of play.] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=btJcbhEDiIM [Not narrated, < 1 minute.
