ABSTRACT:
An arcade type basketball game comprising a framework and basket and a gate for controlling access to the balls. The gate is mounted to a shooting window having an opening for passage of the balls. A gate bar is moveable to a position blocking the opening and is coupled with a pair of solenoids with vertically extendable and retractable plungers. Rigid upper and lower return boards are forwardly inclined for returning the balls more quickly to the player by reducing the vertical component of the ball movement. Netting and vinyl coupled with the framework prevent the balls from bouncing away.
