ABSTRACT:
A training and shooting aid for basketball players to eliminate and prevent interference by the guide arm and guide hand when shooting a basketball. The training and shooting aid includes a pair of adjustable interconnected stretchable sleeves adapted to encircle a player's guide arm. One of the sleeves is intended to be snugly secured around the player's arm slightly above the elbow, while the other of the sleeves is intended to be snugly secured around the player's arm slightly below the elbow. A non-stretchable separable strap member has a free end adapted to be associated with one of the band members. The opposite end of the strap member is provided with a loop for placing around the thumb of the player's guide hand. Once the loop has been placed around the player's thumb, the strap member is adapted to be tightened, whereby the guide hand and thumb are pulled toward the elbow.
