ABSTRACT:
A rebound apparatus used to deflect a thrown ball back in the general direction from which the ball was thrown. The fabric support frame angle is adjustably positioned and the polymeric woven fabric supported by the fabric support frame is adjustably tensioned to provide the desired rebound angle and distance, to simulate ground balls, line drives and fly balls. The fabric support frame has lower brackets which are pivotally secured to the distal ends of a U-shaped brace member. Upper brackets on the fabric support frame pivotally secure telescoping members on one end, with the other end releasably secured to a selected aperture on the U-shaped brace member. Bottom portions of the fabric support frame and the telescoping members provide ground engaging feet to support the rebound apparatus during use. The U-shaped brace member may be folded substantially parallel with the fabric support frame, and the telescoping members releasably secured in aligned apertures in the U-shaped brace member, for ease of transport and storage. Indicia, such as a target may be releasably secured to the woven fabric, and at least one wheel may be rotatably secured to the fabric support frame, for ease of transport.
