The plactic sections have male-female interlocking side edge slip jointing means on two side edges and stiffening rims on the other two side edges. All sections are identical and can be stacked in a compact manner for packaging, transport, and storage. Baskets assembled using the sections are safe, lightweight, pliable, inexpensive, adaptable to stacking, and are suitable for use as goals in game play. The sections can be colored for visual effects, and perforated to reduce material costs and to give sections and baskets added pliability. The multi-sectional assembled basket goals, together with appropriate game ball, playing area, and playing surface, can be used in game play by two teams of from three to eight players each. Four team action games are described: a mini-version of European team handball using a solitary basket goal placed in a limit circle; a mini-version of basketball using two basket goals, each placed in a limit circle on playing surface; a mini-version of football (soccer) using four basket goals in a square pattern, with diagonally opposite goals for the respective teams; and a new and unique game that can be played by three players per team on practically any type surface using four basket goals in a square pattern with 5 mts (5 yds) spacing and a small lively play ball which can only be tapped by flat of hand for passing and shooting. Ball can not touch playing surface or possession is lost. Assembled baskets can also be used for other games, as decorative and boundary indicating means, and as construction assembly items for children.
