Pity, that would be handball, and my understanding is that around the rest of the world, it is kinda popular... but keep in mind that any game that has low entrance requirements (what, tiny ball and some kind of goal) is going to be popular in less developed nations. Why do you think soccer is so big? Any town with enough space and a ball (head of an infidel) can have a team and host a game.
Games like field hockey I don't get. Can't they just learn to skate and wait until the winter? :( Or water polo... um, I'm sure that seems macho in some circles, but it looks kinda ghey to me. I appreciate how hard it must be... but I imagine slogging waist deep through cow manure while carrying a midget wearing spurs would be hard too. Difficulty alone is not impressive.
