==History== :'''''See Also''''': [[History of Buce]] [[Image:Time magazine.jpg|thumb|right|200px|The May 2008 edition of TIME magazine.]] The existence of the game Buce started in early 2007 when a small group of sportsmen decided to evolve their normal hackeysack routine to involve a competitive team game that would involve more players of all skill levels. They invented the background concepts of Buce and the game was tried out by the fabled [[Original 8]]. Since then the game has grown popularity quickly and is a regularly played sport at [[Merewether High School]]. The word ''Buce'' was originally a word that came from the mistyping of the compliment 'nice' on a computer, and was later adapted to the game instead of the working titles of ''whackeysack'' and ''sackeysock''. Buce has gone through three full yearly seasons, 2007-2009, the first ever [[Buce League|Buce Competition League]] was played in 2008. After every Buce League, a [[Buce League Awards|Buce Awards Ceremony]] is held to honour all that played, and celebrate those players that impacted the league on the field. Following soon after the [[2008 League]], the [[2009 Buce League]] lasted 6 weeks and was host to 5 teams, 4 of which are represented from the past groups of the [[2008 Buce League]], the [[Front Team]] and the [[Quad Team]]. The 2009 Buce League started late 2008, continuing into early 2009, and explored the professionalisation of Buce further than ever before. The Grand Final was held at the [[Quad Team]] (2008 winners) home ground, the [[Rooftop]], between the [[Hawks]] and the [[Avalanches]], the latter winning 4-8. After the conclusion of the 2009 Summer League, Buce underwent a brief hiatus, before returning in the form of the [[2009 Winter Buce League]]. This season featured the institution of a new 4 team final system, with the [[Avalanches]], [[Sunflowers]], [[Toecutters]] and [[Scourge]] filling the top positions respectively. The Wooden Spoon was taken by [[Novice Strike Force]], who only managed to score a few points for the entire competition, mostly own points. The eventual winners of this season were the Avalanches, defeating the Sunflowers 6-3 in the Grand Final. Continued Avalanche domination has seen their team being disbanded, and [[League Balance Strategy|reallocation of players]] ahead of the [[2010 Summer Buce League]]. In late 2008, Buce became a popular subject for media projects. Of them, the now discontinued film ''[[Buce for Beginners]]'' and [[National Buce News]] have created the biggest reception from Buce players.
