CatchTheBall is a mural that can be found just off River Road (Bendahara) in an alleyway on the building right in front of Times Square in the Old Town district.

Depicting a boy spiking a volleyball over a net on a beach and with half a ball protruding from the wall, this mural is just one of many photo taking opportunities in Miri.

Created in 2019-2020 as a charity by a local artist and organised by local businesses.
