There is shown a single, dual or multiple housing carrier unit for nets that may be used for playing games such as tennis, volleyball, and other net games that may be employed during physical education classes or physical therapy sessions. The invention comprises a single or multiple elongate housings having opposing ends and a support strap extending away from the housings for connection to a pole standard or support stanchion. Each housing has an internally and centrally located rotatable shaft with connections on the shaft for one end of the net. Each housing has a closeable opening extending longitudinally that allows a net to be dispensed and retrieved through the opening. A handle on one end of the rotatable shaft enables a person to wind the net either into a tightened set-up position or a completely rolled up storage position. Pins are provided that are held captive on the straps to engage the handles in a predetermined fixed position when so desired. The invention also concerns a bracket that is designed to be attached to bleacher assemblies wherein the bracket has connections to a terminal end for connections for the other end of the net located away from the housing and a clamp member for attachment to a board slat forming a part of the bleacher assemblies when the assemblies are in a folded and stored position. The invention also concerns a net antenna for net boundary markers to warn players that they are nearing the support stanchions during play. The net antennas comprises a flexible body having opposing ends with one of the ends being centrallysplit so as to form two adjacent legs that can straddle a game net. Co-operating elements of releasable fastener means extend through the net mesh and hold the antenna in position. The invention also comprises a terninal end for adjustable connection to a support stanchion or bleacher bracket and connections for one end of the net.
