THERE'S NOTHING LIKE ROPEBALL!

Ropeball® originated in the mid-1980s along the Saco River in Maine, where cousins, relatives, and friends spent summers camping, gathering around campfires, and inventing competitive outdoor games. With just one rusty trashcan, a giant nautical rope strung between two trees, and a well-worn softball, a simple backyard game emerged. As the summers by the Saco came to an end, the game faded into memory. Nearly 40 years later, Ropeball® was revived and transformed into the modern beach game it is known for today — combining offense, defense, teamwork, strategy, and nonstop action into a fast-paced outdoor experience designed for beaches, parks, tailgates, campsites, and backyard competition. From its campfire nostalgia to a fully trademarked outdoor sports game, Ropeball® showcases how the best summer games can endure the test of time. Now, anyone can play Ropeball, bringing a piece of its rich Ropeball history back to life.

Ropeball® is an outdoor game that combines offense, defense and target scoring into fast-moving competitive play.

2 vs. 2 is ideal, but Ropeball® can also be played 1 vs. 1 or 3 vs. 3.

The thrower sends the Ropeball over the rope toward three scoring buckets while a defender tries to block the throw. The front bucket scores 2 points and the two back buckets score 1 point each. And unlike most games, defense can score too!

Set the throwing distance and rope height to match your level of play.
