Our take on the Lifetime Portable 96" Tetherball System with Steel Pole, Ball and Cord and Polyethylene Base (91009)

The Lifetime Portable Tetherball System is a freestanding backyard tetherball set: a 96-inch steel pole, a soft-touch ball on a nylon cord, and a weighted polyethylene base you fill and move without concrete. It suits families with kids who want playground tetherball at home and adults who still play hard. Against permanent in-ground sets it trades a fixed post for portability, so the base is the part that matters: it needs enough weight to stay put during hard hits. Owners rate it highly, praising easy setup and sturdy play, while some note the base can shift or tip on hard serves and that the cord and ball wear with heavy use.
