ABSTRACT:
A game board in combination with a table tennis table, the board being movable on the table to selected positions and angularly adjustable both as to angle of inclination from the horizontal and angle of inclination with respect to the longitudinal axis of the table.
The board is provided with a first opening near its upper edge and a second opening adjacent the lower edge of the board. The first opening is provided with an insert ring having a through opening smaller than the first opening and dimensioned to fit therein, the insert having a radial flange shaped to fit within recess surround the first opening such that the insert will be coplanar with the front surface of the board. A guide chute is attached to the rear of the board such that a ball entering the first opening will gravitate through the chute to the second opening to be expelled forwardly therefrom to roll along the table to return to a player. The chute is provided with inwardly extending projections for engagement with a ball passing through the chute to produce an audible sound. A net is supported substantially around the entire peripheral edge of board by support posts which are inserted in sockets in the board and are frictionally held therein.
Preferably, the combination includes the net ordinarily provided on the table tennis table and the board is provided with an opening through which a ball may pass, and a chute connected to the rear of the board to receive a ball passing through the opening and to lead it forwardly beneath the net to the player.
