The following present utility model patent application comprises a set of side strips (20) and support strips (25), protection bands (23) connected to a box (2) and lid (17) for receiving LEDs (L) that, when assembled, form an illuminated sports net that can generate images, preferably inside the goal (G), having high strength against impact and traction, caused both by the impact of the ball on the net or by the impact of the player, resulting from the player's speed in their desire to score points.

An interactive electronic table tennis game is provided that has a table having first and second table portions that are foldable. There are first and second table portions that are structurally the same, and the second table portion has a flat top that is made of a hard material that is clear, transparent, or translucent such that light can pass through the hard material. The flat top is mounted on a frame that defines a plurality of compartments and lights or light emitting diodes that are positioned in the compartments. The frame also supports electronics. The electronics have audio pickups, converter microcontrollers, and a table tennis game computer. When a ball hits the first and second table portions light is emitted by the LEDs in that compartment. This makes the interactive electronic table tennis game fun to play and fun to watch, because everyone can see where the ball impacts.

A ball return assembly is configured to return a ball to a user. The ball return assembly has a base arranged on a ground surface with a first opening and a second opening. An elastic cord is threaded through the first opening and the second opening. A cord lock is joined to the cord first end, preventing the cord from being pulled from the base. A ball is joined to the cord. A frame is arranged proximate the base. The ball, upon contacting the frame, is pulled by the cord toward the base.

A sporting display device comprising circuitry configured to control a plurality of electronic display elements to display one or more electronic images in response to a detection by detector circuitry of an occurrence of a predetermined event associated with a sport, the plurality of electronic display elements being attachable to a sports net associated with the sport in a configuration such that the one or more electronic images are displayed on the sports net.

The multisport space includes a plurality of different fields for goal sports and net sports. There is a first square or rectangular area for goal sports delimited by a vertical wall. The first goal sports area has a goal sports field in which the goals are vertical and extend from ground level. There is a goal sports field in which the goals are horizontal and placed at a certain height. The panels of the vertical wall form nets for a plurality of net sports fields arranged on either side of the panels of the vertical wall. Extensions of panels, leading from their respective implantation axes, also form nets for net sports fields.

Attachments adapted for a portable exercise apparatus configured to attach to a vertical structure. The portable exercise apparatus includes a top strap attached to a hook and a bottom strap attached to a hook, the top strap and bottom strap can be wrapped around the vertical structure and secured at the apparatus. The attachments offer a variety of functionality which can all be utilized when attached to the portable exercise apparatus which would be attached to a vertical structure. Examples of some of the attachments include a basketball net, a dart board, a hammock, and other configurations which can be used and enjoyed by users.

A portable exercise apparatus intended for indoor use. A vertical spine is constructed and mounted to a plurality of wall braces. The spine has a series of pairs of hooks aligned vertically. The user can then place either a pulley plate or a body into a desired hook. Hooks are configured such that when the pulley plate or body is placed therein, force in a downward or straight direction would not remove the pulley plate or body. A bench can be attached to the pulley plate or body which then allows a user to set or lie on and perform exercises using a resistance cord which can be connected to the body, pulley plate, and or braces.

A let detection system includes a sensor including an accelerometer attached to a tennis net. The sensor is in wireless communication with an umpire device able to send a message to the sensor, wherein the message causes the sensor to calibrate and begin monitoring for a let. The sensor determines a three-dimensional (3D) vector representing the gravity acting on the sensor as a baseline. When the sensor detects vertical acceleration of the net relative to the baseline and the vertical motion is above a preset threshold, the sensor automatically transmits a let notification message to the umpire device.

Disclosed is a towel rack for use during a tennis or other sports event. In one example, the towel rack includes a support for supporting a towel, and at least one display panel for displaying a message. In a disclosed method, a message is displayed during the sports event, and the towel is placed on the support such that the message is unobstructed by the towel.

The scorekeeping system includes a plurality of scoring elements. An upper bracket can be secured a first string having a first portion of the plurality scoring elements and a second string having a second portion of the plurality of scoring elements. The first string can have a first thread and a second thread, each of the first thread and the second thread being threaded through the first portion of the plurality of the scoring elements. The second string can have a third thread and a fourth thread, each of the third thread and fourth thread being threaded through the second portion of the plurality of the scoring elements.
