This thing made up in school one day is completely non-notable. To avoid a colossal slog of false positives when Googling for reliable sources, I searched with the term "Football Tennis" jacob findell (the game as well as one of its purported inventors), which turned up nothing on Google Books, News, or News archives (exactly as I expected, given the nature of the subject).
