ABSTRACT:
A sports training apparatus for injecting actual game timing into team practice includes a portable housing having an on/off switch, a skill level selection switch, an area selector switch for selecting position areas for practice, and two time sequence initiator switches. A light and a horn are attached to the housing for signaling a running of a time sequence, and the end of the time sequence, respectively. A programmable controller is mounted in the housing and connected to the above mentioned switches and light and horn. For baseball, the programmable controller is programmed with up to 29 speed time sequences including those for infielder, outfielder, and steal position areas for pre-high school, high school, college, and professional skill levels. For the infielders and outfielders each are provided two time sequences for practicing plays as follows. For the infield, one is for practicing a play for throwing out a batter going to first, and the second time sequence which is divided into two horn sounding portions is for practicing double plays. The horn first sounds the arrival of a runner at second base and then sounds the arrival of the batter at first. For the outfielders, one is for practicing a play for throwing out a runner tagging up and advancing a base after a fly ball has been caught, and the second for practicing a play for throwing out a runner advancing two bases on a hit into the outfield. For the catcher a time sequence is provided for throwing out a runner trying to steal a base.
