mesh tennis ball holder for Quickie Matchpoint?

Ok, I think I've seen some sore of "mesh" ball carrier that goes on the rear of a tennis wheelchair to hold the tennis balls....

But...I googled...can't seem to find it.

Is this provided through Quickie? Or some 3rd party dealers?

Thanks!!!

From the looks of your wire wheels, stick them between the spokes. Works great.

Yeah....but I am worried that they would fall out and I'll roll over the ball and flip myself to be honest....I would rather get what the girl has in the pic....

Nah, never happened with me or anyone else I know. Just press 'em tight. Works great and looks cool. Do you have any challenge reaching that far behind you?

I'm not that person in the picture. But, no, I don't think I'd have much trouble if I could get a mesh ball holder like she has...

Walmart sells training balls that come in a mesh bag like that. You could just tie it to the back of the chair.

I just bought a cargo carrier net from walmart and cut it up and attached a peice of it to the rear bar of the tennis chair with zip ties, works great. Holds around 20 balls.
