A system and method for playing a pin based game with an impact resistant ball and process of forming an impact resistant ball are provided. The impact resistant ball has an increased resistance to damage caused to a ball by repeated impact with objects such as a game board and game pins thereby decreasing the frequency with which the ball must be replaced. The impact resistant ball also has utility to afford a larger segment of the population the ability to properly grip and throw the impact resistant ball by providing an increased length gripper able to accommodate a greater range of hand sizes. The impact resistant ball has further utility to automatically identify and transmit data including the impact of the ball with the game pins and ball metrics including speed, pressure and weight.

The RaP7Ball game comprises the steps of using a field having an inverted equilateral triangle shaped inner field.

Embodiments described herein relate to a system which includes a first vertical support, a second vertical support parallel to the first vertical support, a third vertical support parallel to the first vertical support, and a fourth vertical support parallel to the first vertical support, a first, second, third, and fourth elevation couplers releasably attachable proximate an end of the corresponding vertical supports, a first, second, third, and fourth outer horizontal members releasably coupleable to extend between the elevation couplers perpendicular to the vertical supports, and first and second inner horizontal member extending between the outer horizontal members to be oriented substantially perpendicular to the vertical supports and overlap each other to form an elevated grid suitable for a game.

ROTOBALL is a sport game that depends on the strategy of the placement of defensive infielders and outfielders of varying skill levels into a predetermined and fixed rotation pattern, that is determined by each of the team managers or team captains prior to the onset of the game. The predetermined and fixed rotation pattern (allows for substitutions) and that rotation pattern remains in place for the entirety of the game. The ROTOBALL defensive rotation device displays the placement of each of the defensive players into their positions at the start of each new consecutive inning. The defensive rotation lineup device is a solution in the form of a device; that displays the rotation movement of nine players (and possible substitutions), over the course of a multiple inning of game play and is shared by both teams and the umpire as an officiating device.

A paddle ball game includes a court defined by a base with an action surface and a net supported by poles extending upward and outward from the action surface. The game is played with opposing players that strike the ball with a paddle into the court for the other player to hit until one player misses the ball or the ball fails to rebound out of the court.

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 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.

The Individual Instinct developer is a uniquely designed integrated remote controlled, electronic LED light based System that consists of two major groups #1 remote unit and #2 light device with control box and a power supply. The Light device is to be secured to a harness or band that is be worn either on the body of individuals, or as an attachment to the individuals protective equipment or field equipment, which is to be used in individual/team drills and training to assist the development of an Individuals instinct. To achieve this, the System operator will input a color scheme into his remote unit which will be linked to the Light devices worn by other Individuals or attached to the field equipment. The system operator will than inform the individuals of the colors that are to be illuminated on the light device and the reaction required to each individual color as he cycles thru the color scheme on his remote unit.

A method of assembling a portable fenced-in ball playing area that includes a plurality of panels that have an upward slot on one end of the panel and a downward slot at the other end of the panel. The panels are assembled into a polygon shaped pit, such as for a Ga-ga pit, by fitment of upward and downward slots on adjacent panels. No tools are necessary for assembly. The panels can include hand holes for easy carrying. Some panels may have a top indentation or recess to assist children in entering or leaving the fenced-in ball playing area, such as a Ga-ga pit. These panels can be reversed so that the recess is facing downward to form a goal opening for a game using a ball, puck or the like.

Disclosed embodiments include athletic training devices and systems. In a non-limiting embodiment, an athletic training device includes: a chassis, a portion of the chassis being configured to receive a ball thereon; a sensor configured to sense presence of a ball on the portion of the chassis; and a display device responsive to the sensor.
