The system is an athletic training station for individual and team sports. The station may be a ball-handling and passing station that includes a television with a virtual coach and training walls. The television may project a virtual trainer and the walls may allow a user to mimic passing and handling techniques by utilizing the walls of the station. The station may be stationary or portable. The station may include a front and a back portion that allow more than one user to utilize the station at a time.

A high strength racquet string includes a monofilament core and a plurality of strands braided around the monofilament core in opposite directions. The same number of strands are braided clockwise as braided counterclockwise. The plurality of strands are not bonded to the monofilament core along a length thereof, but are bonded to each other at opposing ends to prevent unraveling of the plurality of strands. A coating is not applied to the high strength racquet string. A cross-sectional shape of the monofilament core and the plurality of strands is preferably round or substantially round. The monofilament core is preferably fabricated from nylon, polyester, polyethylene or any other suitable material. The plurality of strands are preferably fabricated from Spectra, Vectran or any other suitable material. An outside diameter of the high strength racquet string preferably ranges from 1.0 mm to 1.5 mm.

Systems and methods for motion capture and analysis are described. The system may include a motion sensor unit configured to capture data associated with movement of an object. The motion sensor unit is configured to be directly or indirectly coupled to the movement object at a first location. The system also includes a processor to process the captured data to determine one or more values and to translate the data and/or values to correspond to a second location on the movement object located away from the first location. The data and/or values, including translated data and/or values, may be transmitted by wireless transmitter and displayed by a display unit.

A lens for eyewear is shown. The lens includes a lower segment having a first coating applied thereon having a first color, an upper segment having a second coating applied thereon having a second color, and a middle segment being a transition period between the lower segment and the upper segment wherein the first coating and the second coating blend together to produce a range within a color spectrum. The lens of claim 1, wherein the lens is configured to enable a wearer, after hitting a golf ball, to view a flight of the golf ball through the upper segment. The first color includes a portion of the color spectrum having a wavelength range of 450-495 nm or a frequency range of 670-610 THz and the second color includes a portion of the color spectrum having a wavelength range of 590-750 nm or a frequency range of 505-400 THz.

A portable boundary system (PBS), which is a complete pre-measured boundary-line system used for sport specific boundary lines/markings. Whether tennis, pickleball, basketball, badminton or other sports requiring boundary lines/markings, the PBS's of the present disclosure allow a single user to accurately set-up and define a sport's court/playing area. Assembly and disassembly of PBS's and pop-up nets takes a fraction of the overall time and cost of traditional court assembly methods. Since PBS's and pop-up nets are portable, they can be packaged efficiently and moved to varying locations. PBS's do not mark or mar gym floors, concrete, asphalt, grass or other hard or soft surfaces. PBS's are made from PVC/Vinyl and are durable and re-usable.

A practice device includes a base, a support tube, a post, an axle, a first ball rod, and a brake. The support tube extends upward from the base and has a support tube longitudinal axis. The post extends from the support tube and has a first portion and a second portion. The first portion is engaged with the support tube and the second portion includes a first arm. The axle is coupled to the first arm and has a rotation axis. The first ball rod is coupled to a first practice ball and extends between the first practice ball and the axle. The first ball rod is configured to rotate about the rotation axis of the axle and when the first ball rod rotates about the rotation axis of the axle, the first practice ball contacts the brake to slow rotation of the first ball rod.

A tactile reference attachment for providing a user with tactile biofeedback. The attachment includes a tactile reference feature that extends longitudinally along an exterior body surface and is formed with dimensions specifically tailored to harness the user's natural attributes of sensibility, proprioception, and neuromuscular memory to improve a user's performance.

The present invention relates to a gripping glove with a gripping attachment disposed on the palm of the glove. To provide flexibility and friction enhancement, the gripping attachment can be a natural or synthetic polymer having elastic properties, such as rubber. The gripping attachment is structured and arranged to wrap at least partly around an elongated object when the elongated object is grasped. The elongated object can be a piece of sports equipment, such as a golf club or a handle of a racquet or a paddle, a handle of a tool such as a hammer, a chisel, or a file, etc.

Disclosed is a fielding aid accessory to secure on a forearm of a player to ensure optimal arm position. In one embodiment, a fielding aid accessory includes a rectangular arcuate panel, a first loop strap, a first hook strap, a second extension strap, and a retaining element. The first loop strap and the first hook strap are anchored at a center of a first side of the rectangular arcuate panel to wrappably attach and secure the fielding aid accessory onto a forearm of an athlete. The second extension strap is anchored on a second side of a top of the rectangular arcuate panel to extend over and through a center opening of a fielding glove to securely affix the fielding glove to the rectangular arcuate panel. The retaining element is anchored at a bottom side of the rectangular arcuate panel to enable the athlete to securely position the fingers of the athlete.
