An illuminated cornhole platform comprising a top portion, at least two side portions, a front portion, a hole portion, at least one leg portion, and a back portion. The cornhole platform is illuminated by an inner illuminating string outlining the hole portion of the cornhole platform. The cornhole platform is further illuminated by an outer illuminating string outlining the outer perimeter of the cornhole platform.

Systems and apparatus for receiving golf balls include an apparatus including: a body having an ingress and an egress for golf balls passing through the body, wherein each of the golf balls includes a radio frequency identification tag; at least one antenna of a radio frequency identification reader, the at least one antenna arranged with respect to the body to receive information from the golf balls for identification of the golf balls; and multiple protrusions located within the body, the multiple protrusions being positioned with respect to each other in a Galton configuration that both (i) impedes the golf balls from passing through the body without being read by the radio frequency identification reader, and (ii) allows the golf balls to pass through the body without jamming therein.

An athletic skill training apparatus includes a generally horizontal upper ring that defines an upper opening, preferably circular and the same diameter as a traditional basketball hoop, made from a strong, lightweight material. Three lower rings are attached to the upper ring and extend downwardly and inwardly to attach to a base plate. A shock absorbing base member is elastically suspended from the lower rings and absorbs a portion of the force from a ball shot through the upper ring. The base member includes vertically spaced concentric rings of different diameters to redirect the ball out of the lower rings. The rings, the shock absorbing base member and the base plate form a goal assembly that can be positioned on a support above a playing surface.

A system and process for installing in-ground base and basketball systems allows the systems to be installed without needing to wait for concrete to cure. During installation, concrete is poured and anchor bolts are positioned in the wet concrete, a brace is placed over the upper face of the concrete base and the protruding anchor bolt ends. The brace includes a plurality of outwardly extending lateral legs. The legs extend horizontally beyond the edges of the concrete base and into/over the adjacent ground. A stake is placed through each leg. The basketball goal system is then mounted to the anchor bolts and brace. The brace assists in holding the basketball goal system in the correct position while the concrete cures.

An apparatus to play a projectile toss game having 4 sides that allows multiple users to play the game simultaneously and also having various sized holes with pockets that allow for a number of different games to be played.

An arcade game includes a frame assembly that is selectively configurable between an expanded configuration and a collapsed configuration. The frame assembly includes a rear frame and a front frame that are connected by telescoping struts that allow the length of the frame assembly to be shortened when in the collapsed configuration and extended when in the expanded configuration. The front frame and the rear frame each include vertical struts that provide support for the side nets and apron that define the game play area. Optionally, a front panel is hingedly attached to the front frame. The front panel may be deployed at an angle in the expanded configuration or positioned substantially parallel to the front vertical struts to reduce the footprint of the frame assembly in the collapsed configuration.
