ABSTRACT:
A training attachment useful in reinforcing proper glove positioning in the course of fielding a baseball includes a switch assembly that is provided with a switching lever and that is securable to the back of the glove. When thus secured the switching lever extends beyond the glove digit ends, to be deflected against the ground. A buzzer may then be attached to the body of the player connected by a harness to the switch. In this manner correct glove alignment in anticipation of the incoming baseball deflects the lever, thus exciting the buzzer.
