A ball games table comprises a table top demountably fixed to a table base, the top being boarding with sheeting forming a playing surface stretched over its upper surface: one of the boarding and sheeting being water impervious. The sheeting may comprise a plurality of sheets each covering the boarding, at least one of which is water impervious; the boarding itself may be water impervious. The use of rubber sheeting is described as is canvas or tarpaulin sheets with one or more plastics sheets positioned between the sheet and the boarding. The boarding may be a number of separate parts, held together by the sheeting (and optionally hinged together), and rigidly interconnected as the table is assembled. The abutting edges of the parts of the top may extend in different directions and be non-linear; following meandering, wavey or zig-zag paths, when the table is assembled. To level the playing surface the table legs are adjustable in length and the top is, in one embodiment, supported on the table base with the interposition of a plurality of members the heights of which may be individually varied. |
