Coconut Shy Balls - 2 Inch

Traditionally, coconut shy balls are light, wooden balls - only just heavy enough to knock a coconut out of a cup if thrown hard and accurately.

Our standard coconut balls are 2 inches (5cm) diameter and made from Beech. They may not be perfectly spherical and may have the odd knot mark but they are perfect for their purpose and rather nicer than is necessary, given that they will soon be heavily battered!

A few customers have contacted us asking whether these balls are suitable for a "crockery smash" stall at a fair. Well, the answer is yes! Should work fine.

You might consider our more expensive 3 inch coconut shy balls if you need to make it easier than is typical to knock the coconuts down - for instance if young children will be throwing.
