Combat and Contact Novelty Sport Hobbies

Hobbies built around simulated combat or physical contact play pursued informally rather than as an organized sport, Stebbins' player type at its most physical. Belongs here: airsoft, backyard wrestling and hobby horsing (the equestrian-style sport performed on a hobby horse rather than a live animal). Does not belong here: miniature wargaming, whose combat is simulated on a tabletop rather than physically enacted, grouped under Tabletop and Strategy Game Hobbies.
