Hoover-Ball is a unique game invented by President Herbert Hooverโs personal physician, Joel T. Boone to keep the president fit. Since then, it has now become a beloved activity in our community where we host the Hoover-Ball Championships each year during Hoover’s Hometown Days! Find a full schedule of festival activities at hooverdays.org.
