google it buddy, im just as clueless as u are!It originated in Europe, I'm pretty sure it's France. I heard something like Monks would play it by throwing the ball across the court, and would hit it back and fourth using either their hands or a stick. Then in France noble men started playing, and the game devolped into what it is today.
