ABSTRACT:
A sports ball holder holds a ball (e. g., soccer ball, football, volleyball, basketball, etc.) securely therein to preclude ball movement within a vehicle interior while the vehicle is in motion. The holder has a generally square platform, with a support foot extending from each corner. The support feet preferably include a high grip texture or material thereon, to provide a non-slip grip upon the underlying surface. The upper surface of the holder has a receptacle therein, configured and dimensioned to closely fit a relatively large diameter sports ball e. g., basketball). The receptacle bottom may include an additional gripping surface. A secondary tray conforming to the exterior contours of the base, may be placed atop the base to hold a smaller diameter ball (e. g., volleyball, softball, etc.). A net or pouch may be removably secured to the base to hold personal articles for sports players during play.
