This invention is directed to an apparatus to assist in retrieving tennis balls and in storing tennis balls. The apparatus comprises a bottom frame through which a tennis ball may pass upwardly when the bottom frame is positioned over the tennis ball and pressed firmly to the ground and which frame prevents the tennis ball passing downwardly and out of the frame by means of gravitational force. There is positioned above the frame a storage bag for storing tennis balls.
