ABSTRACT:
A versatile, multi-use base assembly constituting a stable support for post-like standards for each of series of different games to be played by children. In a football game and in a soccer game a base-carried supports an upwardly projecting wall. For the soccer game the wall defines a specially-contoured, tension-controlled resilient target area net for forcibly impinging a ball thereagainst, as occurs during the conduct of a game simulating soccer goal shots. The rebound trajectory is a function of the particular zone of the net impinged by the kicked ball, The football game simulates field goal attempts. Again, balls propelled to impact the tensioned, net-like target wall are automatically redirected toward the player for recoupment and for replay. In the basketball game of the invention the ball drops through the hoop to impinge upon an upwardly tilted top surface of the base or pedestal, The ball is, accordingly, redirected to the player.
