What is tetherball?

Tetherball is a playground game played between two people where a ball, usually made of rubber, is attached to a tall pole by a rope. The objective of the game is to hit the ball in such a way that it winds the rope around the pole in one direction, while the opponent tries to do the same in the opposite direction. The game continues until one player successfully winds the ball all the way around the pole, causing the rope to be completely taut and the opponent unable to hit the ball back. Tetherball is a fun and competitive game that can be played by people of all ages and skill levels.
