A63B63/008
Gaming system
The disclosure herein is directed to a gaming system that comprises a game board, a field position indicator, a line of scrimmage stick, projectiles, and a method of play involving these components. The game board can be configured to hinge at a location that is conducive for storage.
Collapsible arcade game
An arcade game system includes a frame that is made from an arrangement of pivotally connected panels that are formed from an assembly of struts arranged in a planar configuration. The frame includes a rear panel, a front panel, and a first and second body panel. When the frame is in an unfolded configuration a game play area is defined between the rear panel and the front panel and above the first body panel and the second body panel. The frame may also be arranged in a collapsed configuration in which each of the rear panel, first body panel, second body panel, and front body panel are parallel to each of the other panels to form a stack of panels.
APPARATUS AND METHODS TO TRACK SPORT IMPLEMENTS
Examples are disclosed to track sport implements and/or objects of interest. An example apparatus includes a first coil to generate a first magnetic field having a first vertical component with a zero magnitude along a first line of interest and a second coil partially overlapped with the first coil, where the second coil is to generate a second magnetic field. The example apparatus also includes a sensor to measure a magnitude of the first magnetic field in the first line of interest and a processor to determine an object of interest has crossed the first line of interest based on the magnitude of the first magnetic field measured by the sensor.
Device for Pattern-Building with Projectiles
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.

Flick Football Game Board and Method of Playing
A finger flicking football game board comprises a planar table surface having a plurality of apertures, each aperture designed to hold a beer pong-sized cup, and a pair of goal posts at a rear end of the planar table surface through which a miniaturized football must be flicked for scoring as an extra point AFTER the miniaturized football has been flicked from a first planar table surface into one of the cups in the apertures of an opposing player's planar table surface. A method of playing this finger flicking football game, preferably to 42 points or greater, is also disclosed.
Annular Multimedia Stadium Goalpost and Multipurpose Target Display System
An annular multimedia stadium goalpost and multipurpose target display system. The system includes a rear support-and-multimedia assembly for supporting the net and producing audible and visual effects. The system also includes a at least one annular frame and a primary projector. The rear support-and-multimedia assembly includes a support assembly and a multimedia bar system. The support assembly maintains the annular frame and the multimedia bar system in an orientation that facilitates playing sports and projecting information. The multimedia bar system includes a plurality of lights, a plurality of first speakers, a plurality of sponsor display panels, a retractably screen assembly, and a retractably underground projector in order to audible and visually convey content regarding the sports game and advertisements to the audience. The system also includes an annular display, and a multitude of rangefinder laser-detector video cameras to track, record, and present gameplay live.

Systems and methods for sensor-based sports analytics
Systems and methods for sports analytics are disclosed. A system for evaluating athletic performance can include wearable sensor devices configured to be removably coupled to an athlete's body during athletic performance, and one or more equipment-mountable sensor devices configured to be coupled to reference objects adjacent to an athletic performance site such as a goal or equipment. A computing device can be communicatively coupled to the wearable sensor device(s) and the equipment-mountable sensor device(s). The computing device is configured to receive sensor data from each of the sensor device(s) and to determine at least one performance parameter.
