Abstract
A disposable and detachable pocket to hold game balls that is initially disposed on or within a game ball container, thereby allowing users to hold multiple game balls while participating in a sporting event. The pocket comprises a substantially horseshoe shaped attachment portion which is initially removably disposed on a bottom surface of a lid of a game ball container with a small netted pouch or net attached. The attachment portion which comprises an adhesive surface may be peeled off the lid and then affixed anywhere on a user's clothes. The adhesive disposed on the attachment portion is durable but does not affect or damage the fabric of the user's clothing. The adhesive is only disposed on the shaped attachment portion so the ease and accessibility of placing or removing game balls from the net is not affected. The detachable pocket is comprised of inexpensive materials can be thrown away after use.
