Multi-tethered ball assemblages, each using 3 to 12 standard tethered balls, with connecting lines from 10 to 20 feet (3 to 6 mts) long, are attached to a freely positioned central hub ring. Connecting lines have swivels and spring fasteners to prevent lines from twisting and to facilitate easy attachment of lines to balls and hub. Decorative items such as flags, ribbons, and banners can be attached to connecting lines for added visual effect. Hub is small metal ring about 2 inches (5.2 cms) in diameter. Multi-tethered ball assemblages can be used in group participation for recreation, exercise, display, and synchronous ballet activities by tossing, tapping, rolling, bouncing, and passing tethered balls from person-to-person in a large horizontal circular pattern about central hub, with circular pattern radius being determined by taut connecting line length, and with all said activities being carried out on signals or count, or in time with music. Groups numbering from 6 to 30 persons or more can use assemblage indoors, outdoors, in water, in parades, etc.
