Abstract
A multidimensional sports system for playing a multidimensional sports game having a physical component played by physical players manipulating a movable game object within a physical playing area, and a virtual component played by virtual game users within a virtual game space inside a virtual competitive game. The multidimensional sports system comprises an interactive game portal with a physical portal boundary and a sensor, a game host device for implementing the virtual competitive game, and a game object projector. A physical to virtual game transition occurs upon the sensor detecting the movable game object crossing the physical portal boundary, suspending the physical component and initiating the virtual component. The virtual component is played until a virtual game object crosses a virtual portal boundary, causing a virtual to physical transition suspending the virtual component and causing the game object projector to launch the movable game object onto the physical playing area.
