Outdoor Fun with Tetherball


When I was a child, I loved to play tetherball! I ruled the playground, and my parents made a tetherball game for me in our backyard. I would spend countless hours practicing. When I saw Magic Cabin offered a tetherball game, I had to get it for my children’s birthday.

As I mentioned before, our cabin is small, and outdoor toys are very appealing. I believe children should spend as much time outside as possible, so the tetherball game offered my children another opportunity to play in the shade. When our tetherball game first arrived, only one part of the pole was in the box. I called Magic Cabin, and they were very kind and quickly remedied the problem. When we installed the tetherball game. which does involve a little concrete, the fun began. The pole is very tall and a little wobbly, but it works. My daughter loves to play the tetherball game, and she has taught her little brother to hit the ball too.

The tetherball game is not very natural. The pole is made of galvanized steel, the rope is nylon, and there is no guarantee the ball is fair trade manufactured. I am also not sure what the country of origin is either,but overall, we are very happy with this toy. Tetherball can be a competitive sport, so it is important to downplay this aspect with your children.

    I also loved playing tether ball. As an adult, playing with my friends kids, brought back a host of good memories. Thanks for posting. It’s got me remembering again.

    I remember playing this game in grade school. 1st through 8th graders played it together. Lots of fun for 2 – ? children.

    I loved playing tetherball as a kid! Seems like all the outdoor fun has been replaced by electronics.
