Embodiment Construction

[0025] Referring now to FIG. 1 , a training device according to the invention is schematically indicated by reference 10 . The training device 10 includes an upper ring 12 and a set of lower rings 14 . May be preferred. The upper ring 12 and the lower ring 14 are annular and have the same diameter as a normal basket. However, upper ring 12 and lower ring 14 may be of any suitable size and shape for games and skill tests using different sized balls or for other purposes. The upper ring 12 defines an upper opening, and each lower ring 14 defines a respective lower opening therethrough. The upper ring 12 and lower ring 14 may preferably be constructed of a lightweight material that is both strong and light, including but not limited to aluminum, high strength injection molded plastic materials, and the like.

[0026] Referring now to FIG. 2 , the upper ring 12 is shown connected to each lower ring 14 by connectors 16 at respective tangent points. The connector 16 is preferabl...

Abstract

An athletic skill training apparatus includes a generally horizontal upper ring that defines an upper opening, preferably circular and the same diameter as a traditional basketball hoop, made from a strong, lightweight material. Three lower rings are attached to the upper ring and extend downwardly and inwardly to attach to a shock absorbing base member. The base member includes an upwardly extending projection with a rounded upper surface that tapers downwardly and outwardly to direct the basketball out of the lower rings. The rings and the base member form a goal assembly that is mounted on a support assembly telescopic post for use by children and adults.

Missed shots are always a problem because the ball has to be retrieved. Even successful shots are a problem because the net is designed to cause the basketball to drop onto the playing field floor directly below the rim. The athlete is forced to move from his or her shooting location to the basketball location in order to retrieve it, and then to another shooting loc...
