lacrosse ball

Stick-caught rubber sphere

A lacrosse ball is a solid rubber ball used in the sport of lacrosse, about the size of a baseball but denser and harder.

Beyond the field, lacrosse balls are widely used for self-massage and physical therapy, their firmness making them effective for working out muscle knots: I keep a lacrosse ball at my desk for my back.
