ABSTRACT:
A device for aiding in tennis instruction which primarily comprises a base having a post of telescoping members attached thereto and extending upwards therefrom. An arm is pivotally attached intermediate its ends to the upper end of the post. One of the ends of the arm is provided with a loop or eye which serves as a target for receiving an upwardly tossed ball. Attached intermediate the ends of the post are a pair of horizontally extending vertically spaced arms, one of the arms rotatably supporting a pulley and the other arm rotatably supporting a motor operated reel. One end of a line is attached to the other end of the pivotally attached arm, an intermediate portion of the line is secured to the pulley and the other end of the line is secured to the motor driven reel. A foot-activated switch is electrically attached to the motor of the reel whereby a player can activate the motor to raise and lower the one end of the arm having the loop or eye.
