ABSTRACT:
A rebound apparatus for practicing striking a ball with a racket. The apparatus has an elongated rectangular frame which is mounted on a base for pivotal adjustment about a horizontal axis. Mounted on the frame is a flexible material which is relatively loose along the width of the frame and relatively taut along the length of the frame. The upper end of the frame is curved out of the plane of the main portion of the frame, and this upper end supports a ball rebound surface. The flexible material may be secured at its upper end to the rebound surface. The length of the frame is adjustable. In use, a ball when hit by a racket will strike the flexible material, rebound upwardly against the ball rebound surface, and then rebound again in a direction back toward the player who hit the ball.
