The subject garment comprises a rectangular piece of sheet material. When the garment is worn by a user one end of the piece is held against or close to the user's chest in a line between the user's armpits and midway between them. The corners of the other end are grasped in the user's hands and the piece is held in a generally horizontal position. Objects striking the piece can then be caused to rebound from it and the trajectory of the rebounded object can be influenced by manipulation of the piece. In a preferred embodiment the sheet material is elastic and the garment comprises adjustable straps arranged to position the piece on the wearer as described above. The garment is used in play and games in which an object such as a ball is repeatedly rebounded from the garment.
