Review on 🟑 Optic Yellow Tether by Champion Sports by Mark Turner

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Have a good "Children's Confession " and get some exercise too!

OH MY GOD! My granddaughters love this ball. My own kids tell stories about the family playing tetherball and now we have a tetherball in the middle of the driveway (portable) so even the neighborhood kids come over to play. The ball comes with about 10 feet of rope that can be cut to the size you want. Some reviewers have commented that it's too stiff, but the solution is to simply inflate it a little less (softer) and the stiffness problem will go away! We bought a 1 1/2 inch electrical cord from Home Depot for twelve dollars and drilled a hole in the driveway to cement the pole. As the concrete dried, we kept rotating the post to keep it from sticking to the concrete. Once installed, we removed the post and can now add or remove it as needed. Don't buy "fence posts" as ball posts, they cost twice as much! There are many videos on YouTube showing how to concrete this into an old tire. The ones we had when our kids were little, we just dug a hole in the dirt in our yard and it worked fine. a pole and a "snap clip" so you can remove the ball and rope from the pole for storage. Seriously, that $20 for the ball, pole, and clips was one of the best things we've ever gotten from kids bought it, and it's good exercise for them too!
