Generally no, depending on how old the toilet is (because older toilets came in all shapes and sizes, but newer ones are more standardized). If a tennis ball plugs the waterway -- and it should -- no flushing will happen. As a sidenote, we used to carry tennis balls when sailing in case there was a problem with the Head.

Theoretically yes ... probability of it happening, rare. The outer dimension of the tennis ball is much too large to travel freely through the bends of the lower part of the toilet. About the only way this could happen is if the tennis ball was forced by hand into the water outlet. Only recourse there would be to remove the toilet perhaps, and/or call a professional plumber. After that is done, remove all tennis balls from the house.
