It’s a sticker from the Lakeland family calendar. All the other symbols are for events but I have no idea what this one means!

See Les Fleche Rouge (not 9)?

Cave painting class?

Pin the ribs on the fishspine?

It's a stitched up ball, so a sporty thing?

Onekidnoclue · 11/06/2019 18:25

I think it’s supposed to be a picture of a football ⚽️

UrsulaPandress · 11/06/2019 18:28

It’s a cricket ball isn’t it?

TeaStory · 11/06/2019 18:32

I think it’s a basketball.

flumaflower · 11/06/2019 18:32

rugby ball?

TeaStory · 11/06/2019 18:33

Google “basketball symbol”, I’m sure that’s what it is.

MummaGiles · 11/06/2019 18:33

Basketball

Bezalelle · 11/06/2019 18:34

It's either a sports ball or a highly esoteric runic symbol.

reup · 11/06/2019 18:44

There’s a football already - could be basketball or rugby

Here the whole sheet - I have no idea why after many years of buying this that I’ve suddenly noticed it!

Baseball

BertieBotts · 11/06/2019 18:50

Yes, I think it's a different kind of ball. Definitely when you see it next to the football. Maybe cricket?

elephantoverthehill · 11/06/2019 18:52

Could it mean cut the grass? But may be wrong colour, unless your lawn looks like mine atm.

Foslady · 11/06/2019 19:49

Baseball/rounders?

LoisEinhorn · 11/06/2019 19:53

It's the glove from baseball think

MyNewBearTotoro · 11/06/2019 19:55

I think it’s meant to be a rugby ball

HasThisSoddingNameGoneToo · 11/06/2019 20:05

It’s a basketball.

AlunWynsKnee · 11/06/2019 20:07

That's an American Football ball MyNewBearTotoro not a rugby ball.

BikeRunSki · 11/06/2019 20:07

Not a cricket ball, that would be red

HasThisSoddingNameGoneToo · 11/06/2019 20:08

It might be easier to tell what it’s meant to be when you look at a vintage basketball...

It seems odd if it’s basketball as it’s not that popular in the UK to have its own sticker. Although it’s more concerning that there’s only 3 night out / day out stickers but tons for medical appointments.

Thanks for all the ideas!

We have the same calendar and a basketball mad child. So in our house it is a basketball. (As an aside,I agree the balance of stickers is odd and suggests quite a dull life. Need more celebration ones! )

Surely they mean it to be a more ‘generic ball’ to cover a few of the sports mentioned on this thread. Like saying ‘any ball sport that isn’t football (soccer)’.
