QuestionHow far from the ground should the ball be ?
Community AnswerThis depends on who will be playing it the most. If you're making it for children, the ball should sit naturally at about a child's chest height. That way, when it's swinging it would take a good amount of effort to return. -
QuestionWhere do you get these things?
Community AnswerThe supplies to build the pole and court can be found at your local hardware store. A tetherball can be found at sports shops, like Sports Authority or Dick's Sporting Goods. You can also find them online.

QuestionIs there a tetherball that can be used with both a volleyball and a tennis ball?
DonaganTop AnswererA tetherball is the size of a volleyball. A tennis ball wouldn't work as well, because it's not heavy enough. It wouldn't have the right momentum.
