ABSTRACT:
An object throwing and catching apparatus having a strap with handles and bridging members to define an object receiving area around netting or solid material. Elastic strips are present in the bridging members to cause them to contract creating a cradle effect in the netting. Such a cradle enhances control of the object to be thrown and caught and enables the object to be easily catapulted via the snap action created by the cradle. For use with water balloons, bursting clips and netting knots may be provided on the apparatus to facilitate breakage of the water balloon. VELCRO fasteners may also be provided on the receiving surface of the apparatus as well as the ball to be caught to facilitate overall control.
