ABSTRACT:
A multi-piece double ball construction is described in which there is: a first piece of durable material having an essentially linear shape along its middle section and terminating at a first end in a first essentially hourglass shaped section and at a second end in a second essentially hourglass shaped section; a second piece of durable material having an essentially hourglass shape essentially similar in size to the hourglass shape of the first hourglass shaped section; a third piece of durable material having an essentially hourglass shape essentially similar in size to the hourglass shape of the second hourglass shaped section; a first deformable core positioned between the second piece of durable hourglass shaped material and the first hourglass shaped section of the first piece; a second deformable core positioned between the third piece of durable hourglass shaped and the second hourglass shaped section of the first piece; first stitching for securing the second piece of durable hourglass shaped material to the first hourglass shaped section of the first piece around the first deformable core so as to form a first spherical shape at the first end of the first piece of durable material; and second stitching for securing the third piece of durable hourglass shaped material to the second hourglass shaped section of the first piece around the second deformable core so as to form a spherical shape at the second end of the first piece of durable material; wherein the middle section of the first piece hold the first and second spherical shapes together so as to allow the first and second spherical shapes to move together when thrown by a player during play.
