There was a suggestion about playing games some time ago, but I suggest something much simpler what will work with current game progress.

Leather ball
Category: role-play item
Resources:
500 grams of leather
50 grams of string
Time: 2 days
Tools: needle
Two special actions (buttons on inventory/objects page): throw a ball (custom event like "x throws a ball"); kick a ball (custom event like "x kicks a ball")
Weak weapon (to be able to throw it at somebody)

Rubber ball
Resources:
300 grams of rubber
Tools: ? I don't know
Other params the same.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ulama_(game)#Ulama_balls

Modern ulama balls are made using a traditional technique: rubber sap is boiled with other ingredients to vulcanize it and allow it to retain its shape. Using the traditional technique also makes the balls expensive and difficult to obtain.


Ulama [u'lama] is a ball game played in a few communities in the Mexican state of Sinaloa. Descended from the Aztec version of the Mesoamerican ballgame, the game is one of the oldest continuously-played sports in the world, and is also notable for the fact that it is the oldest known game utilizing a rubber ball.


I think rubber alone should be enough, unless you want to boil it with resin.

I like that, another use for resin would be good.
