Abstract: Balls with lead or steel shot, weights, liquid or the like are pitched or rolled towards a board such as a crokinole or naughts and crosses board and remain relatively stationary once they have landed. The board is upwardly inclined and contains dividers extending upwardly therefrom in both the transverse and lengthwise directions of the board. The balls may have a fixed weight so that wires can be applied when rolling such as required for a lawn bowling type game. When used with steel shot or the like, they can be played onto a magnetized board which will hold them in place or alternatively, a flexible fabric or plastic bag type ball can include steel shot or the like and can be pitched onto a magnetized board. The balls constructed in accordance with this invention can be used for any game which utilizes a ball.
