ABSTRACT:
A partition structure defining compartments shielded from moving objects, such as baseballs, from other compartments. The structure comprises a central support and at least three partition walls extending substantially radially outwardly from the central support to define at least three compartments. Each partition wall includes a lower frame element and a pliable web of material extending therefrom for shielding one of the compartments from the others. The partition structure is preferably collapsible and may be anchored to the ground via stakes. A collapsible backstop system is also disclosed, comprising a collapsible backstop and a container for receiving the collapsible backstop in its collapsed configuration for storing or transporting the backstop.
