The Individual Instinct developer is a uniquely designed integrated remote controlled, electronic LED light based System that consists of two major groups #1 remote unit and #2 light device with control box and a power supply. The Light device is to be secured to a harness or band that is be worn either on the body of individuals, or as an attachment to the individuals protective equipment or field equipment, which is to be used in individual/team drills and training to assist the development of an Individuals instinct. To achieve this, the System operator will input a color scheme into his remote unit which will be linked to the Light devices worn by other Individuals or attached to the field equipment. The system operator will than inform the individuals of the colors that are to be illuminated on the light device and the reaction required to each individual color as he cycles thru the color scheme on his remote unit.

A training device for teaching and practicing ball handling skills for basketball players or persons training for sports, the training device including stanchions positionable on a floor using attachment members, such as suction cups, or a flexible resilient layer. A crossbar extends between the stanchions. Flexible elements can be used to connect the stanchions to the suction cups. The lengths of the stanchions and crossbar can be adjustable to set the height of the crossbar above the floor and the separation of the crossbars. Detents can allow for adjustably fixing the lengths.

A skating frame which incorporates hockey flippers to allow inexperienced skaters to play hockey while learning to skate. It is designed to be used as a multi surface game apparatus, allowing for wide accessibility. The apparatus aims to increase the people that can play hockey by allowing inexperienced skaters, when used on ice, to maintain balance and be supported while allowing them to also be able to interact with the object in play. The apparatus may also be adapted for ground use to help those with mobility impairments to play floor hockey. The interaction with the object used in the game is facilitated by the flipper blades that run along the play surface allowing the user to engage with the play object easily without having to compromise their support.

Disclosed embodiments include athletic training devices and systems. In a non-limiting embodiment, an athletic training device includes: a chassis, a portion of the chassis being configured to receive a ball thereon; a sensor configured to sense presence of a ball on the portion of the chassis; and a display device responsive to the sensor.

A marker cone and ground anchor for use with sporting events, such as soccer, comprising engagement features that allow the marker cone to attach to the ground anchor for improved stability against wind and other disturbances. A stretchable cord extends from the conical portion of the marker cone and engages with a feature in the ground anchor, thereby allowing the marker cone to remain upright while the cord is engaged and under tension. The engagement features allow the marker cone to be removed and replaced without disturbing the ground anchor, and the compliance of the attachment method does not compromise properties of the marker cone that allow it to move or collapse for safety reasons during impact with a falling person.

A sports training system including a set of numbered panels to be placed on a playing or training surface. The training system uses circular panels strategically positioned on the ground to guide a player's feet into a proper sport stance for multiple sports, including baseball, soccer, and basketball. The training system provides multiple circle-shaped panels. The panels are sized appropriately such that when a player being trained places feet on opposite sides of the panel, the player is placed in an athletic stance, approximately shoulder-width apart. The location of the panel on the playing surface places the player in a proper position. The panels may be formed from neoprene. The panel lays flat on a playing surface. Each panel has indicia printed on one side. The panels are positioned throughout the playing surface and may be located appropriately for certain types of offensive or defensive formations.

A sports training aid comprising a frame with skate-like and hockey stick-like members attached thereto and including an upright frame member supporting a backboard to simulate an opposing player. This training aid is intended to assist the novice hockey player in developing the skills associated with maneuvering the hockey puck around and/or through an opponent. The device consists of a frame having a longitudinal member connected to a transverse member, the transverse member having leg members each terminating in a skate simulation member and a distal end of the longitudinal member terminating in a hockey stick-like member, an upright frame member supports a backboard.

An apparatus comprises a plurality of upright frames, an upright frame of the plurality of upright frames comprising a first upright segment, a second upright segment, and a lateral segment to connect a first end of the first upright segment to a first end of the second upright segment, a first base segment to couple to a second end of the first upright segment, and a second base segment to couple to a second end of the second upright segment, wherein the first base segment and the second base segment are to interface with a ground surface to support the upright frame in an upright position. The plurality of upright frames are adapted to support a batting cage net when in use and the plurality of upright frames are nestable together or may be placed directly adjacent each other when not in use.

Systems and methods for improving an individual's response are disclosed. A system for improving an individual's response comprises an item of headwear having a microphone; a speaker; a recording device secured to a front of the item of headwear; an electroencephalogram cap for measuring and recording electrical activity in the individual's brain; and a computing device. The computing device includes machine readable media; an input device; an output device; a communication device for communicating over a network; a processor in data communication with the machine readable media, the input device, and the output device; and electronic instructions that, when executed by the processor, perform steps for causing the speakers to project noise to the individual and actuating the recording device to record the individual's field of view. The microphone allows the individual to communicate, over the network, with a third party.

This invention is directed to a ball tee for supporting a ball. A ball tee comprises a column, and two platforms. The column is hollow and is generally identical on top and bottom, and dimensioned, at the bottom, to receive the narrow end of one platform, and, at the top, to receive the narrow end of another platform, communicating the column to both platforms, or one platform on the bottom with no platform communicated to the top, or either one platform on the top with no platform communicated to the bottom, providing a plurality of configurations and difficulty levels when utilizing the ball tee. The column is configured to stand upright on a multitude of natural and manufactured surfaces, with no platform communicated to the bottom, and to support a ball when there is no platform communicated to the top.
