Some schools called this a playground ball but we called it a “utility ball” where I went and anyway the smaller version could also be boobies
Oh weird, I've never heard either of those. I only remember it being called a kickball (even when not being used in the game Kickball).
Dang now I wonder what a map would look like with these various terms corresponding to different regions and whatnot
I looked yesterday after commenting and didn't have any luck finding one.
