1. A flying ball stopping net device including an elastic wire rod assembly that assumes an annular form when it is in a free state lying on a horizontal flat surface, said wire rod assembly including a first end member constituting one end of said wire rod assembly in one direction extending along said horizontal flat surface, a second end member constituting the other end of said wire rod assembly in the direction opposite to said one direction, and a pair of intermediate members respectively positioned in a longitudinally intermediate place in each side of said wire rod assembly to constitute a transition portion from the first end member to the second end member, said flying ball stopping net device further including a flying ball stopping net closing a first end space surrounded by said first end member, and attached at its outer edge to said first end member, each of said intermediate members being bendable such that imaginary extension planes of a second end space surrounded by said second end member and of said first end space cross each other at a predetermined angle, in which bent state said second end member is contacted with the ground while said first end member is raisable with respect to the ground, said flying ball stopping net device being characterized in that a flexible first connecting member is provided for interconnecting said first and second end members while counteracting the elastic restoring force of said wire rod assembly, so as to retain said predetermined angle.
