Abstract
A simulated volley ball game apparatus including a central standard about which a ball is connected for universal movement by a tethering arm. A net is provided to define a pair of opposed playing areas and three ball impellers are disposed on each side of the net and spaced therefrom generally the length of the tethering arm. The ball impellers are manually actuatable so that the players may attempt to contact the ball as in the game of volley ball to pass it to another of his teammates or across the net to opposing ball impellers. The standard has a plurality of detents spaced radially about the top thereof in alignment with the six ball impellers to guide the tethering means and thus the ball in the direction of one of the impellers.
