Abstract: A game of catch is enhanced by the provision of a special glove and football. The glove is symmetrical so that it can be worn on either the right hand or the left hand and is formed from a close fitting elastic fabric. One part of a hook and loop fastener is attached to the glove while a complimentary part of the hook and loop fastener is attached to the football. The fasteners are disposed on the glove in a preferred pattern which provides a large area of contact without inhibiting the flexibility of the glove. The fasteners are attached to the football in a preferred configuration which completely covers the end sections of the football while leaving the central section of the football with spaced fasteners facilitating the grasping and throwing of the football.
