ABSTRACT:
In practising various sports such as hockey, it is known to provide a target in a desired position such that the shooter strikes or otherwise directs a projectile at the target. In this invention, the target is portable and can be connected to a fixed object such as the frame of a hockey net. The target is a band of steel or other sturdy material and of any desired shape. A pocket is connected to the perimeter of the target for catching a hockey puck, ball or other object which is directed through the perimeter of the target. A spring is, at one end, connected to the target and, at its opposite end, connected to a clamping device such that the target, spring and clamping device, can be connected to a fixed object such as the goal post or crossbar of a hockey net. The shot target assembly can be easily connected to and removed from a wide variety of objects. The spring can absorb any impact caused by a projectile hitting the target without displacing the shot target assembly and without causing damage to the target.
