'''Parrises squares''' is the name of a vigorous athletic game that was popular with teens throughout the [[24th century]] and into the [[25th century]], much to the concern of parents. When playing parrises squares, players often wear unique padded uniforms, and use a piece of equipment called an ion mallet. The game also involves a ramp, and if players are not careful, they may fall off and injure themselves. The [[Starfleet Academy]] team faced the Minsk team in the parrises squares Championship Finals of 2324. It came as a big surprise when [[Starfleet Academy]] won, as the Minsk team was favored. [[Starfleet]] [[Rank|cadet]]s threw a celebratory party that wreaked havoc on the academy grounds and took Boothby three weeks to repair. The game involves two teams of four players. It is possible for a team to have substitute players to rotate in and out of play. Some players, like William Riker, nevertheless felt that doing so would cause a team to lose the "rhythm" of the game. (TNG: "11001001") When playing parrises squares, players often wear unique padded uniforms, and use a piece of equipment called an ion mallet. The game also involves a ramp, and if players are not careful, they may fall off and injure themselves. (TNG: "Future Imperfect") Raymond Marr, a colonist on Omicron Theta played parrises squares with a group of his schoolmates. He started when he was very young but was gifted and even won a championship emblem in the game. (TNG: "Silicon Avatar") The Starfleet Academy team faced the Minsk team in the parrises squares Championship Finals of 2324. It came as a big surprise when Starfleet Academy won, as the Minsk team was favored. Starfleet cadets threw a celebratory party that wreaked havoc on the academy grounds and took Boothby three weeks to repair. (TNG: "The First Duty") M'Kota R'Cho was the only Klingon national that played parrises squares professionally, when he participated in the controversial Championship Finals of 2342. (VOY: "Year of Hell") Starbase 74 had a parrises squares team, which the Enterprise team played against during its stay there in 2364. (TNG: "11001001") While healing a deep cut on William Riker's face, which he acquired from Data's cat Spot, Doctor Crusher lectured him "to stop playing parrises squares as if you're 21," further advising him that "one day, you'll break your neck, and I won't be able to heal that as easily." (TNG: "Timescape") When the Doctor created a holographic family for himself in 2373, his 'daughter' Belle was on her school's parrises squares team. This worried her 'parents', because parrises squares can be a dangerous game for someone her age. It later turned out their worries were justified, as she later 'died' of complications from a parrises squares injury. (VOY: "Real Life") Harry Kim played during his cadetship, and was Academy champion three times. (VOY: "Tsunkatse") [[Category:Database]][[Category:Games and Recreation]]
