  • the object of the invention is to provide an apparatus for use in a game which will bringinto use almost all of the muscles of the body.
  • a further object is the provision of. an apparatus relatively inexpensive which has few parts and which can be used to give a high competitive game between two people.
  • a still further object is the provision of a sport ball secured to an elastic rope midway between two handles to give an apparatus for a new game.
  • the apparatus comprises an elastic cord or rope a which may be of any convenient length but it has been found by experiment that a length of approximately three meters will allow the best results to be had.
  • Secured to each end of the rope are handles 6 while firmly attached to the rope and midway between the two handles is a sport ball 0.
  • This ball which is of the usual inflated type, is about the size of a volley ball and is made of a soft light material which will cause no injury to the players even though struck in the face with it.
