ABSTRACT:
A paddle ball game and method of ball control associated therewith which includes two paddles held parallel to each other and a resilient ball supported between them. Each player observes the ball's location through the transparent material used to form the paddle's ball engagement area and moves the paddle to roll the ball into the aperture in the other player's paddle. The paddles also feature a handle mounted offset from the surface of the paddle and a flexible net which covers the aperture to catch the ball after it passes through. Alternatively, an inelastic cord is also used to tether the ball to the paddle. In another embodiment, means are provided to illuminate the engagement area for play in the dark.
