A gymnasium or playing field game apparatus provides one or more movable target components in the shape of a mascot mounted on swivel casters which roll on the gym floor or other playing field. Each component serves as a movable target for projectiles thrown by two teams from geometrically opposite sides. Each mascot is moved incrementally upon being impacted by a projectile to move the mascot on the gym floor until it breaks through a designated goal finish line of traffic cones protecting one team or the other.

A golf putting aide locatable between a golf ball and a golf hole for use by a golfer putting the ball toward the hole to train the golfer to putt. The aide includes a frame supported by a support, the frame having a gap located at a lower portion of the frame and oriented so that during use of the aide when the ball is putted through the frame toward the hole the ball will pass through or below the slot on its path to the hole.

The invention relates to a golf training device comprising an annular support with a hole for a golf ball is formed. The support being provided with a plurality of members angularly distributed with each member having an external ramp and an internal ramp. The ramps are arranged to have a stable state with the external ramp arranged in a plane of access to the hole. The internal ramp is arranged protruding around the hole, and a state constrained by the passage of the ball on the member wherein the internal ramp is lowered inside of the hole. The annular support has a plurality of feet which are angularly distributed between the members, each one of the feet having a lower ground support wall and an upper wall forming an access ramp to the hole.

A basketball gaming system may comprise at least one basketball hoop and at least one goal placement analyzer configured to adjust at least one position parameter of one or more of the at least one basketball hoops according to at least one user parameter associated with at least one user. The basketball gaming system may further comprise at least one hoop placement system configured to position the at least one basketball hoop according to the at least one position parameter. The at least one position parameter may comprise at least one x-axis coordinate, at least one y-axis coordinate, and at least one z-axis coordinate. The basketball gaming system may further comprise at least one hoop switching mechanism configured to select one or more of the at least one basketball hoops. At least one position parameter of the selected one or more basketball hoops is associated with an active status.

A device that is capable of being in three states: (1) a first stable state, (2) a second stable state, wherein said device teeters back and forth when hit by a force, and (3) and a third stable state, wherein said device will topple completely over when hit too hard by a force. The device comprises a target piece and a base. The base is configured to lay flat on a surface and contains a curved section, a ledge, and a ledge perimeter. The target piece may contain a top piece attached on the opposite side which the base is attached, which may contain a hollow cavity, a shot glass holder cavity, or take the shape of a target for use in target practice. The device may be used in many different applications including in recreation games, drinking games, target practice, and fighting practice.

A ball toss game and method of playing. The ball toss game comprises a circular game board and a plurality of container retaining components attached to the game board. The circular game board is segmented into a plurality of substantially equally sized pie shaped sections. A plurality of substantially sized containers are removably positional within each of the plurality of container retaining components. A center container, smaller than the plurality of substantially sized containers is removably positional within a center container retaining component. The method comprises a set of instructions for a game where users attempt to toss ping pong balls into the plurality of substantially sized containers and the center container.

A training apparatus for teaching and practicing skills for sports. The apparatus includes at least one removable electronic device having at least one proximity sensor, a playing surface having a cavity which receives the at least one removable electronic device, and a gamepiece, such as a ball. Each proximity sensor is adapted to sense the gamepiece and activates a visual or audio indicator on the at least one removable electronic device if the gamepiece is within a range of the at least one proximity sensor.

A target assembly that is configured to withstand high-velocity impact from a projectile. These configurations may comprise elastic members, or bungee cords, that generate elastic forces to return the target assembly to its orientation prior to impact. The bungee cords are less likely to undergo inelastic deformation; so these components afford the target assembly with longer life or longevity under heavy duty cycles.
