A ball net is provided, which includes two poles, a top net, a tilting bottom net, a decelerating catcher, and a collecting sack. Each of the two poles are bent and crossed at a zenith point forming four side openings, one of which provides a target opening portion configured for hulling a ball. The tilting bottom net is provided at a low portion of the space surrounded by the zenith point and the four ends of the two poles, and the tilting bottom net is tilted toward a front of the ball net. The decelerating catcher is provided inside the target opening for reducing speed of, stopping, and dropping the ball. The collecting sack is disposed at a front portion of the tilting bottom net for receiving the ball rolling down on the tilting bottom net and keeping inside.
