PITTSBURGH – November 13, 2026 -- A Poway, Calif., inventor is offering a patent-pending sports ball backpack for licensing or sale to manufacturers and marketers through InventHelp. The design holds a full-size basketball, or a smaller ball plus diaper-bag items, and has a holder on each side, for two drinks in total.
The inventor, a stay-at-home mother of two, says she developed the bag while walking to a church basketball court with an 18-month-old and a newborn. At the time she carried a basketball, a diaper bag and the baby strapped to her chest. The inventor also lists school supplies as intended contents, and the release describes the bag as suited to school-age children.
