A universal ball joint includes a first pivotal body and a second pivotal body rotatably assembled with the first pivotal body. The first pivotal body includes a substantially elliptical ball head and a connecting portion extending out from the ball head. The ball head has a major axis and a minor axis substantially perpendicular to the major axis. The second pivotal body defines a substantially elliptical ball socket rotatably engaging with the ball head of the first pivotal body such that the ball head may rotate around the major axis or the minor axis of the ball head.
