One end of the sapling is whittled fiat on one side for a sufficient length to be bent round to the shaft or handle so as to form the rim of the circular receptacle which is to receive the ball.

Sometimes both sides of this bent portion of the sapling are made flat.

The end of this flat end where it curls round upon the shaft or handle must be bound firmly to the shaft with thongs or heavy twine.

Holes are sometimes bored through the rim and the thongs or twine are passed through them and woven into a loose netting to form a bottom to the coiled end, making a shallow cup-shaped receptacle in which to catch or hold the ball.

The rackets are not difficult to make.
