ABSTRACT:
A ball dispensing machine for practicing hitting that includes a carrier mounted on a stand having both a load end and a discharge end. A series of index wheels or a hinged detent operate as a feeder means for feeding differently sized balls from the load end to the discharge end. The stand has a center stanchion comprising a plurality of pieces which are telescopic and rotatable within one another enabling the ball dispensing machine to pivot and be height adjustable allowing for use with various sports and by left-handed and right-handed individuals. The hinged detent enables either hand or foot feeding of the balls. Whereas, the index wheel relies on a motor to control the rate at which balls are delivered.
