PRINCE EDWARD ISLAND, Canada (KTRK) -- The world cup is being played in Brazil, but in Canada, it's bubble soccer that kids are now checking out.

Bubble soccer involves placing all the players in huge, inflatable plastic bubbles. Business owner Jason Wall says players can knock each other to the ground, but no one gets hurt.

"It's kind of like a combination of football and soccer, full contact," Wall said. "The only rule is you can't hit anybody when they're down and if you can stop laughing long enough, try to put the ball in the net."

Wall says he wants to start a league on Prince Edward Island later this year.
