A practice device with an integrated signal emitter that can provide a visual indicator. The practice device includes a dual-arm sleeve in which both arms can be inserted to form a platform for ball handling. The signal emitter integrated with the dual-arm sleeve provides a visual indicator that can effectively teach a player how their arm and body stance will affect the ball trajectory. When utilized with a target, the practice device helps a player learn how to achieve the correct arm and body stance from any location or position on the court in order to achieve the desired ball placement.

Innovative apparatuses and methods for a novel training device is provided that includes a base, a frame, a material attached to the frame, wherein the material comprises a non-solid material; and an image affixed to a first side of the non-solid material, wherein the image is viewable on the first side of the non-solid material and viewable on a second side of the non-solid material.

An apparatus and system for obtaining metrics associated with a user's athleticism. In an embodiment, the user performs a workout using the apparatus, and the workout is scored based on a scoring system. In an embodiment, the scoring system may be objective, thereby facilitating score standardization, and individual users for which scores have been recorded may be ranked by the system. In an embodiment, individual users may associate their system profiles with one or more positions for one or more sports. The rankings may be filtered by position and sport to facilitate identification of one or more users of interest, such as for a college recruiting purposes or professional sports team drafts.

The system is an athletic training station for individual and team sports. The station may be a ball-handling and passing station that includes a television with a virtual coach and training walls. The television may project a virtual trainer and the walls may allow a user to mimic passing and handling techniques by utilizing the walls of the station. The station may be stationary or portable. The station may include a front and a back portion that allow more than one user to utilize the station at a time.

A training apparatus arranged to be portable, collapsible, and able to be configured into different arrangements for different nets and/or different sports-related activities. The training apparatus comprises a support portion, base poles pivotally coupled to the support portion, base brackets coupled to the base poles opposite the support portion, extensions coupled to the base brackets, first and second flexible rods removably coupled to the support portion, and a net configured to be received by the flexible rods. The net is configured to bend the first and second flexible rods from a linear state to an arcuate state, such that a net tension holds the net upright.

One or more systems, devices and/or methods for assessing of at least one of coincidence-anticipation timing or motion perception of a user are provided. For example, a screen is controlled to display an interface comprising a first representation of an object moving from a starting point to an endpoint. The object is configured to reach the endpoint at a first time. An attempt to activate a response device when the object reaches the endpoint is monitored for. The attempt is detected at a second time by receiving a signal from the response device. An error of the attempt is generated based upon the first time and the second time. A report is generated comprising the error. The report may be representative of a coincidence-anticipation timing ability of the user.

The scorekeeping system includes a plurality of scoring elements. An upper bracket can be secured a first string having a first portion of the plurality scoring elements and a second string having a second portion of the plurality of scoring elements. The first string can have a first thread and a second thread, each of the first thread and the second thread being threaded through the first portion of the plurality of the scoring elements. The second string can have a third thread and a fourth thread, each of the third thread and fourth thread being threaded through the second portion of the plurality of the scoring elements.

A portable sports rack and delivery system including an elongate rack enclosure, and a method of use thereof are provided. The elongate rack enclosure defines a storage space for accommodating balls stacked one above the other. A delivery opening, disposed at a first end of the elongate rack enclosure, receives, accommodates, and delivers an uppermost ball from the storage space. A base member, attached to a second end of the elongate rack enclosure, supports the stacked balls within the storage space. A release component including a compression spring, disposed on an upper surface of the base member, elastically compresses and expands to elevate and release the uppermost ball from the storage space for delivery through the delivery opening. A training component, operably and adjustably coupled to a rear section of the elongate rack enclosure, extends above the first end of the elongate rack enclosure to assist in training a sportsperson.

Innovative apparatuses and methods for a novel training device is provided that includes a base, a frame, a material attached to the frame, wherein the material comprises a non-solid material; and an image affixed to a first side of the non-solid material, wherein the image is viewable on the first side of the non-solid material and viewable on a second side of the non-solid material.
