This is a list of ball games which are popular games or sports involving some type of ball or similar object. Ball sports are not sports in the true sense, but are instead considered to be games. These ball games can be grouped by the general objective of the game, sometimes indicating a common origin either of a game itself or of its basic idea:

The ball game snooker in progress. Red ball about to be potted.
  • Bat-and-ball games, such as baseball and cricket.
  • Racquet and ball games, such as tennis, squash and racquetball.

  • Goal games, such as basketball and all forms of football, hockey or lacrosse.
  • Net games, such as volleyball and sepak takraw.
