Abstract

Disclosed is a cleaning apparatus that is adapted to be worn on the belt of a user. The apparatus permits its wearer to clean a golf ball at any point during a round of golf. The apparatus includes a water tight container with a hinged lid which houses a volume of cleaning fluid. A cleaning implement, such as a sponge, is removably positioned within the container such that it comes into contact with, and absorbs, the cleaning fluid. Thereafter, the implement can be removed from the container and used to clean the surface of a golf ball.
