A new and useful ball range system for wagering is disclosed. The system incorporates targets having RFID readers therein, coupled with at least one server communicating with each target, and further having the potential to operate over more than one physical site. The wagering supported is characterized by player-funded winnings, of which pari-mutuel betting on ball-based games is one example. The system enables operators to offer many wagering games based on a games outcome in an efficient and exciting manner to a player using player-funded pools.
