That the Parliament congratulates Newton Stewart In Dumfries and Galloway on continuing to be the host of the World Tambourelli Championships; understands that tambourelli is a court game, which was invented in Galloway in the 1970s and has since spread all over the world, with small communities of players running active clubs in England, Scotland, Germany, Japan and Sweden; notes that It shares many players, coaches and fans with tamburello and tambeach; understands that its fundamental aim is for players to stop a shuttlecock from landing in the court on their side of the net, with players hitting it with a bat similar to a tambour, which is similar to a tambourine without bells, or an Irish bodhrán, which, for grip, has a strap for along the outer edge and a section of moulded plastic on the inside; recognises the sport's historic roots, which date back to the 1800s in Libya, where it was traditionally played with a small ball; believes that it can be played and enjoyed regardless of age, gender and fitness level and has fundamental health benefits to health, and wishes Newton Stewart success with the 2019 world championships.
