Benefits of technology

The present invention is a training device for ice hockey that helps players learn how to handle the puck. The device consists of a frame with three legs, two of which have a skate-like element to simulate the skates of an opponent, and the other has a hockey stick-like component to simulate the bottom part of the opponent's stick. The device can be used by one player and encourages them to pay attention to the skates and stick of the opponent while simulating the height of an opponent. This helps novice players to learn the basics of attacking the hockey puck.
