A ball retrieval device includes a main body and a ball collection basket for storing retrieved balls. The basket is shaped substantially as a slotted box. Only a single basket opening, located in a forward peripheral portion of the basket, has a width greater than the diameter of a ball. The collection basket is removably attached to the main body using a pair of upward-turned hooked bracket portions that extend through mesh openings in the basket and allow the basket to remain substantially horizontal when the basket is attached to or removed from the main body. Arms which extend from the main body are provided with an arrangement of resilient fingers, strips, brushes or lips that form a channel in which balls are held when they are adjacent to the arms. These fingers, etc., channel balls along the arms towards a conveyor mechanism located within the main body as the ball retriever is pushed forward.
