A ball rebound wall apparatus for a swimming pool which uses a substantially planar panel mounted on a pontoon assembly. The pontoon assembly is to be floatingly located within the swimming pool. A ballast is to be placed on the pool decking with a pontoon assembly to be tied to the ballast in order to locate the pontoon assembly in a set position and maintain the pontoon assembly in a set position. The pontoon assembly includes a groove. The ball rebound wall is to be mounted within the groove to be supported on the pontoon assembly. The pontoon assembly can be varied in its flotation ability by increasing or decreasing flotation. The rebound wall is to be tilted to assume an inclined position so that upon a ball striking the rebound wall, the ball is rebounded in an upward direction away from the surface of the water of the swimming pool. The ball rebound wall apparatus is to be readily removable and disassembled when not in use.
