Fetch

A popular game, especially with very energetic young pups (and parents wishing to tire them out.)
Sportmasters may offer ballmaster services.

Execution

The ballmaster uses the racquet to fling the ball as far as possible, and the other players take chase. The first to return with the ball wins the round.

Components and tools

A sturdy ball, often made of leather stuffed tightly with wool and either a simple wooden paddle or a more elaborate wooden racquet strung with gut.
