	Tetherball - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The equipment consists of a 10 ft (3 m), stationary metal pole, from which is hung a ball from a rope, or tether.
		Tetherballs usually have a bar recessed in the top that the rope is tied to.
		Tetherball is still an informal sport, and has not seen any organization beyond contests within schools, summer camps, or towns.

	What is Tetherball?
		Tetherball is a competitive game most often seen on school playgrounds or in city parks, primarily because it is relatively inexpensive to install and the rules are fairly straightforward.
		The standard equipment list for a regulation tetherball court includes a pole approximately ten feet (three meters) in height, a length of nylon rope eight feet(approximately 2.3 meters)long equipped with clips, and a soft rubber tetherball.
		Some versions of tetherball allow the player to bounce the ball up and down in his or her hands until ready to shoot, a practice similar to dribbling in basketball.

	Tetherball - Lawn Games
		Tetherball is a truly simplistic game which is best played by two people.
		Portable tetherball poles make this fun, informal game even more attractive for outdoor events, in lieu of permanently installing a large metal pole in a yard or at a park.
		A classic schoolyard game, Tetherball is still popular today.Â While there is a stereotype of the lonely, slightly weird kid playing Tetherball by himself, this is far from the truth.Â With the proper rules, Tetherball can be a lively and fun game for two.

		The tetherball, attached to the airplane by a long and elastic connection, is the market valuation of the underlying asset.
		Ultimately, the movement of the tetherball is tied to the movement of the underlying airplane, but it?s a long tether, and the shorter the period of time you consider, the more its movements follow erratic crosscurrents that change second-by-second.
		The airplane and tetherball metaphor is useful for exploring a variety of subjects.

	Who Invented Tetherball? - Tetherball (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		Actual volleyballs were used in early Tetherball courts, but recently some sporting goods companies have given the game its due respect and developed balls made especially to be tethered.
		Because Tetherball has not been accepted by the sporting community as anything more than a playground distraction, not much work has been done on the history of this fine game.
		Without an organized outlet for our Tetherball urges, we must take solace in the occasional game with a friend, and with the knowledge that Tetherball is not losing any steam.

		Tetherball is the pose of perfect compromise, the oasis of a full-contact sleeper coupled with a solitary sleeper.
		The pose allows the Pole (the solitary one) a free range of movement, while the tight self-embrace of the Ball (the full-contact one) supplies the necessary crowded closeness.
		The Tetherball is part of the Wood sleepers family.

		Setting up the base is simple process of putting the tetherball pole together, then sticking it into the base, through a concrete-filled tire.
		The tetherball could have been a source of playability but because the rope is actually a wire you can't play with it.

	Total Tetherball Rules
		A game is won when one player has wrapped the rope as far as it can go in her own direction.
		His advantage, though, is tempered by the fact that the server can wind the ball at least one wrap in her own direction and use an angled serve to prevent him from getting a clean first hit on the ball.
		This makes the contest as fair as it can be, although winning one's serving games is still about as rare in advanced tetherball as breaking serve is in advanced tennis.

		Tetherball hasn’t changed much from back in the day.
		As the tetherball would be winding around the pole, about to seal my doom again, I would jump and raise my hands to block it.

	momentum conservation doesnt acomplish in a tetherball - Advanced Physics Forums
		a tetherball of a mass 1kg that changes radius from 1 m to 100 m at a constant speed of 100 m/s will have a momentum of 10011 initially and a final momentum of 1001001 kgmm/s
		The specification of constant speed of 100 m/s requires input of additional energy to achive when the radius is changed to 100m, thus creating the added momentum.
		The radius gradually got smaller and there was no additional input of energy, only the blow that started the ball.
