Ballhog™ is a Canadian-patented safety innovation (CA 3290004) created specifically for environments where supervision, safety, and liability matter most.
🛡️ Stops balls before they reach the street.
The strong, flexible net catches rolling and thrown balls instantly, keeping them contained in your driveway or play zone.
🚸 Prevents children from chasing after balls.
With the barrier in place, children don’t instinctively run toward the street — reducing one of the biggest outdoor safety risks in childcare settings.
⚙️ Freestanding, no installation required.
The system is non-permanent and completely freestanding. Set it up in minutes, move it as needed, or store it away easily in the supplied carrying bag.
💪 Built tough for daycare use.
With interlocking metal bar sections, tension rods, and stabilizing bases, Ballhog™ is designed to handle high activity and daily outdoor play.
🇨🇦 Made for Canadian driveways.
Designed and developed right here in Canada, Ballhog™ was created to withstand our climate and fit the unique layouts of Canadian properties.
Encouraging Driveway Play — Safely
Driveway play is more than fun — it’s developmental.
It helps children:
Build gross motor skills and coordination
Practice teamwork and social interaction
Develop imagination and unstructured play
Enjoy outdoor supervision close to the facility
But without proper containment, driveways can be seen as unsafe or off-limits.
Ballhog™ changes that conversation.
By providing a visible, physical barrier, Ballhog™ allows daycare owners and supervisors to confidently include driveways in their outdoor programming while maintaining high safety standards.
Reducing Risk and Liability
Every childcare provider understands that safety and compliance are non-negotiable.
Ballhog™ helps mitigate risk by:
Creating a defined, enclosed play zone away from vehicles and traffic
Serving as a preventive control measure in your safety plan
Demonstrating due diligence — showing parents, inspectors, and licensing agencies that you’ve taken steps to eliminate preventable hazards
For many centers, Ballhog™ enables the use of previously restricted outdoor space without the cost or permanence of fencing.
Simple. Portable. Effective.
Setup in minutes — no digging or permanent anchors required (optional anchors available).
Freestanding and movable — easily reposition for parent pickups or snow removal.
Two sizes available:
• Ballhog™ Single — 10 ft
• Ballhog™ Double — 20 ft
Easy to store — disassembles quickly for compact storage in a supplied carrying bag.
Bring Back Driveway Play at Your Daycare
Daycare professionals across Canada are using Ballhog™ to reclaim safe driveway play.
It’s an affordable, high-impact safety solution that parents love and children adore.
Because driveway play should never mean danger — and with Ballhog™, it doesn’t.
