RhysI grew up in Maine and seem to recall something that looked like this at one time and I was told it was used for indoor Field Hockey. I think they used a softer ball and this sort of raquet and it was not as brutal and dangerous (probably better on the Gym Floor too) but I could be wrong. This is just what I was told by an old dude at an antique show. It makes sense if you have ever seen a field hockey stick but who knows.
