I received the official rules and guidelines for Juggling a  soccer ball  from the  Guinness Book of Records.  I was hoping I had a 3 hour break every 5 hours, but their rules are different from mine(smile).  I guess I will have to follow their rules, which is 3 minutes break every 12 hours and the ball cannot touch the ground when or if I take  that break.  Click here to read the official rules
