ABSTRACT:
A volleyball training device is provided which is mountable to a standard basketball hoop. A backboard is configured to rest on the hoop so that the hoop and an associated bracket are received in a recess in the backboard. A pair of elastic straps are stretched across the backboard under the hoop to secure the backboard in position and to hold up a basketball net out of the way. A tether is secured to the backboard and is arranged to suspend a volleyball in position to receive practice spiking hits.
