An elbow joint device applied in goal includes: a first rotation component, a second rotation component and a junction plate. The first and second rotation components which can be inserted into the inner side of goal bar having a first and a second connection component are assembled in the junction plate. The first and second rotation components have a first and a second groove with a first and a second rotation hole passing through. The first and second rotation components pivot on the junction plate via bolts in the first and second rotation holes so that a goal can be unfold or fold by using the elbow joint device.

A golf putting training device with a base and a plurality of posts extending upwardly from the base is provided. The plurality of posts may be positioned on a diameter of a circle and the diameter may be generally equal to a golf hole diameter. A distance between at least two of the plurality of posts is less than the golf hole diameter and thereby provides a narrow opening for a golf ball to roll through. A pair of sleeves may be positioned on a pair of adjacent posts such that the narrow opening for the golf ball to roll through is reduced. Also, an elastic member may extend between two posts and across the narrow opening for the golf ball to roll through such that a golf ball putted towards the narrow opening is redirected when it is rolls into the elastic member.

A device is provided for receiving projectiles and creating a pattern. The device includes a plurality of hoops arranged in parallel and configured to receive the projectiles. A two-dimensional grid could be providedacross a plurality of channels of the device, or on a display of the devicein order to display the projectiles received by the plurality of hoops. In some examples, projectiles may be received by a plurality of channels, and the pattern is created within the channels and is viewable through apertures across the channels. In other examples, sensors may be used to determine when a projectile has passed through one of the hoops, and indicators may be displayed in corresponding vertical columns of a two-dimensional grid on a display.

A system is provided that generates and assigns a composite performance index number for an athlete throwing or hitting a plurality of objects at a net. The system involves a net having a uniform grid, at least one spin rate device embedded within the objects; one or more measurement devices at least one of adjacent to or integrated within the net and positioned to observe the grid; and an evaluation apparatus coupled to the spin rate device and the one or more measurement devices. The evaluation apparatus includes a processor configured to: based at least upon data captured by the one or more measurement devices, determine relative to the grid respective locations where the objects are thrown or hit by the athlete; and generate and assign, based at least upon the determined location, a composite performance index number for the athlete. Associated methods and computer program products are also provided.

A golf hole enlargement device and par enhancer is provided herein. The golf hole enlargement device includes, but is not limited to, a plurality of horizontal disks. The horizontal disks have a constant center hole diameter, a constant flange thickness, a constant ridge depth and width, but a varying outside diameter for each disk.

A sport training and organization (STO) device, comprising: a base plate, a bucket, and a tee. The bucket is connected with the base plate and has an opening at one end distal from the base plate. The tee is connected with the bucket.

A training device for use with a goal having a pair of posts and a crossbar, includes a pair of side panels, each side panel being disposed adjacent each of the pair of posts, each side panel including a pair of first arms disposed parallel with the pair of posts, upper and lower transverse members extending between the pair of first arms, a first netting covering the area defined by the pair of first arms, and the upper and lower transverse members, and at least one hinge coupling one of the first arms to an adjacent post.

The present invention is a sport played on a circular field. In the center of the field is a target member, common to both teams. The target member has nineteen sections referred to as scoring receptacles, wherein the scoring receptacles have numerical values. The present invention deploys a rugby style ball and the object of the game is for each team to place the ball, via kicking, throwing or a combination thereof into the various scoring receptacles that comprise the field and target. While various combinations of player could be utilized to comprise the two teams, in a preferred embodiment of the present invention the two teams comprise of nine players each. The target member is a specifically designed apparatus required to play the game of so as to facilitate receipt of the ball. The players will wear protective equipment that is soft sided having no metal or hard plastic.

A targeting device includes a body (504) that is formed from a flexible polymeric material with opposing sides with a target coupler (506) about one opposing side of the body (504). A goal frame coupler (502) is carried from body (504) and is formed with a surface that may be received with a friction pad (514). Also contemplated is at least one strap-type adjusting device (508) that is carried by the goal frame coupler and/or the body, and which is formed with at least one knob that cooperates with the goal frame coupler to fasten the targeting device to a pole or other structure. In variations, at least one respective channel (516) is formed in the coupler (502) and sized to capture one or more of the adjustment knobs. The target coupler (506) may be formed by a connection joint (518), which is coupled to a target (510) there about.
