Abstract: A ball retrieving and storage device including a storage container having a pair of handles hingedly fixed thereto which may be folded to a downwardly extending position supporting the container on a playing surface. The retrieving device includes a plurality of parallel rods extending across the bottom of the container. The rods are spaced apart from one another a distance greater than the diameter of the balls to be retrieved and being slightly resilient in a direction perpendicular thereto. Each of the rods has journaled thereon, for a rotating movement, a hollow, cylindrical tubular roller wherein the distance between inside surfaces of adjacent parallel rollers is slightly less than the diameter of a used tennis ball. The transverse resilience of the rods and the rotating motion of the rollers permit a ball to be retrieved by forcing the bottom of the container down over the ball.
