ABSTRACT:
An annular netted target (8) that can rotate to different angles as well as to different heights. The target will assist in the teaching and drilling of ball placement skills that are essential to a player when playing a field or court sport. The invention will also assist the physical education teacher or coach who must teach several students at one time, all with different skill and interest levels.
The Ball Accuracy Target is lightweight, easily assembled, disassembled, transported and stored. The target's angle is changed by simply rotating a screw(15). The height is controlled by extending and compressing telescopic poles (18, 18a,18b,18c) that are anchored in place with a slip joint nut (20, 20a,20b). The target can be free standing on a variety of surfaces: a stake base (22) will attach to a ground surface, a flat base (24) will attach to an indoor/outdoor carpet surface, and a suction base (26) will attach to a gymnasium floor.
