50 Swimming pool water game goal apparatus US09751717 2001-01-02 US20010009874A1 2001-07-26 Willliam W. Beazley
A game goal apparatus that is intended to be played within a swimming pool which uses a substantially planar backboard at opposite ends of the swimming pool. Each backboard is designed to be used in conjunction with a water polo ball. Each backboard includes a through opening which may connect with a net mounted on the backboard to guide the ball when the ball passes through the through opening to be deposited on the water directly adjacent the rear surface of the backboard. The backboard is to be mounted on a frame which may be located within the water of the swimming pool. The backboard is tilted to assume an inclined position so that upon the ball striking the surface of the backboard it rebounds in an upward direction away from the surface of the water of the swimming pool. The goal apparatus may be collapsible when not in use.
51 Hydrodynamic throwing disc US09503802 2000-02-14 US06241570B1 2001-06-05 Edwin Thorne, III
A gliding or flying hydrodynamic disc designed for recreational use under water. The disc is circular and about 12 inches or 300 mm in diameter, and about ½ inch or 1.198 centimeters high. Circular grooves on the surface of the disc provide a grip surface so that the user can adequately maintain control of the disc under water. The weight of the disc is determined to allow the device to generally maintain equilibrium while under water. The shape and the materials are crafted to provide minimum drag. The top and bottom of the device are symmetrical to minimize drag-inducing lift effects. A soft outer edge surface provides a good grip on the device and for safety in pool and dive use. The disc can also be used as a dive plane or to change course by holding it out in front while the user is swimming.

A volley ball support system for playing a game of volley ball in a pool is described. A floatation buoy supports one end of the volleyball net and freely floats in the pool without being anchored to the floor of the pool. The buoy includes a guide in order to attach a line strung to both sides of the pool in order to keep the buoy from moving and a freely held weight that keeps the buoy righted should contestants come in contact with the buoy. The game may use flexible nets that can be adjusted in width simply by rotating the upright supports in order to pick up excess slack or to add slack to the nets.
56 Beach game US669882 1996-06-21 US5613689A 1997-03-25 Erhan Gunday
A beach game includes markers for planting into the sand and water indicator bands which change color upon becoming wet. A player attaches a water indicator band to his ankle or other body part and pursues retreating waves in the direction of the water. The player plants the marker into the wet sand as far out as possible, without wetting the water indicator, and then returns back up the beach in front of the resurging surf. The object of the game is to plant the marker further out than the other players without wetting the water indicator. The game is particularly advantageous for young children because the players necessarily avoid significant contact with water.

60 Poolside basketball goal US472703 1990-01-31 US5037093A 1991-08-06 John L. Roark, Jr.
A poolside basketball goal for in-ground swimming pools with a backboard and hoop supported by a support having an extended horizontal component. A support is anchored in the ground by an anchor which is located more than 3 feet away from the in-ground pool and the extended horizontal component of the support is greater than 3 feet and is sufficiently long to laterally traverse the sidewalk to suspend the hoop over the pool. The support is moveable with respect to the anchor and may be pivoted away from the swimming pool so that the sidewalk around the swimming pool is free from impedance of pedestrian traffic by the horizontal component of the support. Locking mechanisms, such as set screws, allow for vertical telescopic adjustment as well as for locking the support pool in a selected angular position. The anchor includes radial members to resist rotation of the anchor embedded in concrete.
