Abstract: An apparatus for delivering balls is disclosed. The apparatus has a pair of conveyors for balls (specifically footballs) that follow a conveyor path. There is a collection area or sump that receives balls and the path of the conveyor passes through the sump area at an angle inclined to the horizontal. The exit to the sump has a travel limiting device to prevent any balls from leaving sump area unless they are correctly engaged with said conveyor. The balls are delivered to a sports apparatus for use as part of a game or sports themed attraction.
