    Oak balls, called “chôlettes” and wooden clubs, called “rabots” are used by U.S. members of the Chièvres and Supreme Headquarters Allied Powers in Europe (SHAPE) community participating in a traditional festivity in Chièvres, Belgium, Feb. 14, 2018. This annual golf-alike, medieval sport of “crossage”, takes place the day after Mardi Gras. Players drive chôlettes with rabots into metal kegs targets set up around town.
