noun

1. A variation of catching, so named because it is played at and around HDB blocks.

Usually, a game of catch would never see completion during our short recess breaks and tend to continue after school. There’s where the fabled, Block Catching, came to be. ... In retrospect, the poor neighbours were the innocent bystanders in this madness.
