ABSTRACT:
A device for carrying at least one sports ball, such as a golf ball, including a cylinder which has a given length, an internal diameter, and first and second ends. The length of the cylinder is longer than the diameter of the sports ball to be carried, preferably longer than twice the diameter of the sports ball to be carried. The internal diameter is sufficient to receive such a ball. Preferably, the first end has an opening expandable from the first diameter that is less than the diameter of such ball to a second diameter at least equal to the diameter of such ball, whereby such ball can be inserted in such end. The device also includes a closure for the second end of the cylinder and a mechanism attached to the closure for permitting the device to be grasped and, optionally, attached to another object (e.g., a golf bag). Preferably, the cylinder is made of expandable material and, more preferably, the expandable material is expandable mesh-like material.
