ABSTRACT:
A tabletop ball game has two-handled paddles for projecting a soft foam ball back and forth from end-to-end of a rectangular ballfield over a central ball bounce-deadening zone. The paddles each have a flat, round ball striking portion and two handles extending radially therefrom in coplanar fashion from diametrically opposed positions. Embodiments of the ballfield are described in the form of a top of a folding table, a rollable tabletop overlay, and a rigid conversion top for a pool table. Embodiments of the bounce-deadening zone take the form of a rectangular foam pad, a strip of carpeting, and a net horizontally hung across a gap.
