Abstract: A toy for throwing, bouncing, and catching has an elongate hollow cylindrical tube which extends at each end to and partially about respective high bounce cylindrical balls. The cylindrical balls each have a reduced diameter which extends partially into the hollow tube. A conforming collar or sleeve jointly extends outwardly and around the cylindrical tube and cylindrical high bounce balls to provide added security and support. Such design improves the stability and recovery of the overall toy during and after being impacted under striking load conditions, and thereby improves the interactivity between one or more players.
