		The ball bounces, per the Satyricon, and therefore this must be a small pila, or the same ball used in expulsim ludere (handball).
		Since the ball must bounce in the center circle, it could be described as "hopping." Alternatively, having experimented at length, we find that players must often jump or "hop" to catch the ball, as it tends to fly over their heads.
		Balls bounce better on concrete, and chalk works for the circles, but diving for the ball is definitely out of the question, at least without wearing pads.

		Ball Boy - Part one If you follow women’s professional tennis you may have heard of me, or even seen me on television sitting courtside at one of the major tournaments.
		Were it not for the tennis ball stuffed in my mouth, I would have howled like a banshee from the excruciating pain she inflicted upon me. As it was, I was reduced to making barely audible grunts as tears streamed down my face.
		"Ball boy," she said, reaching over and stroking my temple with her hand, "you're really good for me. And I think I'm pretty good for you, too." As she spoke, she kissed her fingers and touched them to my lips tenderly.

	Serving it up on Court 18 – as a ball boy \| csmonitor.com
		Unlike golf caddies, ball boys are not supposed to interact with players or wax on about the peculiarities of the game – or anything else.
		The "qualies" are a grueling battle for respect, with umpires and ball boys in a Rodney Dangerfield preamble, battling for spots in the main draw.
		It is the ball boy's mission to be as impartial as an umpire and as subservient as hired help – but without the authority of one or the allegiance of the other.

		I didn't take into consideration how I had to stand on the baseline, where the balls need to be when there's a tiebreaker, how to bounce the ball to a player or how to handle five balls rolling at me simultaneously, while, at the same time, the player is asking for a ball.
		My ball boy mentor, Dorianna Lofgren, informed me that, while watching the tournament on television two years ago, the CEO of an event sponsor phoned her up from Germany furious that a ball boy was standing in front of his advertisement.
		When the umpire said, ''Balls down,'' during a service change in the second set tie breaker, I knew he was talking to me because I had five balls and was confused about who was serving.

		The adventure that Infogrames and Webfoot Technologies has created on the Game Boy Advance is definitely made for fans of the show, because the design is so bland and unexciting that it won't do much for folks unfamiliar with the Dragon Ball Z brand.
		Dragon Ball Z: The Legacy of Goku is a linear action adventure that pretty much follows the cartoon's plotline to a tee.
		This design is a far cry from the wild, exaggerated action sequences that the Dragon Ball Z is known for -- these battles aren't the wacky, over-the-top airborne fist-and-fury fights that Dragon Ball Z fans expect out of hte series.
