Please always supply a traceback of the error you receive when asking for 
help. "It doesn't work" is rarely helpful.

First problems from glancing at the code:

1. you're referring to "ball" and "ballrect" when they don't exist.
2. you also use the sys module without importing it.

Also, why are you renaming pygame?
