A batting practice device having a pair of spaced apart, vertically extending support frame members. One of the support frame members is provided with a rebound board and the other support frame member is provided with a tension spring assembly. A guide wire is attached between the support frame members having one of its ends attached to the rebound board assembly and its other end being attached to the tension spring assembly. A bushing element is attached to the guide wire for sliding movement therealong. A tether line is attached to the bushing element for suspending a ball therefrom; a ball is attached to the tether line and suspended thereby at a height to be struck by a practicing batter and therefore propelled along the guide line to subsequently strike the rebound board. The tension spring assembly is in the form of a plurality of springs arranged in a square based truncated pyramid cage pattern. The rebound board and tension spring assembly are vertically adjustable on the support frame members.
