Hello, I’d like to introduce new tag to OSM tagging scheme. My proposal is sport=teqball.

Teqball is relatively new sport. To play it special table (similar to table tennis) is required, and some space around it (recommended field is 12m x 16m).

I’d like to reccommend tagging it as a node (where table is) or area (whole field/pitch) with tags:

leisure=pitch
sport=teqball

My plan is to:

  1. create Wiki page Tag:sport=teqball and link it where relevant; - done
  2. retag all occurrences currently found when searching for Teqball in Nominatim; - done
  3. send PRs for editors. StreetComplete

Do you have any comments?
Can I proceed with my actions? I believe change so small do not require formal proposal.

Definitely, even this thread is an overkill in such case (but welcome one)

I thought it already existed, but maybe I remember taginfo uses.
I first heard about that sport last year when I saw such tables out in the open during a vacation.
And yes, I agree with the proposal. Go for it.

Is this your picture? Looks like it would make a great wiki picture
