Tether
Ball Rules | What
is Tetherball
The tetherball playing area consists
of a circle, 20 feet in diameter, divided into two playing areas. One
player begins by tossing the tetherball into the air and hitting the ball
in any direction he chooses. The opposing player cannot hit the tether
ball until it passed on its second swing around the pole. Each player’s
goal is to wind the rope completely around the tetherball pole
in the direction of his play. The player who wins four out of seven games
wins.
FOULS:
(tetherball goes to opponent.)
-
Striking the ball with any part of
the body other than the hands or the forearms.
-
Holding or catching the ball during
play.
-
Touching the tether ball pole with
any part of the body during play.
-
Playing outside their designated playing
area.
In most cases, with the most common rules, the server
has the advantage because they have the potential to angle the ball
to where the opponent cannot hit the ball on the initial serve. To create
a disadvantage for the server some people require the server to wait
until either the opponent strikes the ball or the ball has wrapped four
times before they can strike the ball again. This gives the opponent
a better advantage because they get the first chance at unrestricted
control of the ball.
