An illuminated hockey puck assembly includes a housing having an outer surface including a top side, a bottom side, and a perimeter edge extending between the top and bottom sides. The illuminated hockey puck assembly has a weight, a shape, and a size comparable to a hockey puck. A lighting system is mounted within the interior and is encapsulated by the outer surface such that the lighting system is immobilized in the housing. The housing is translucent such that the housing is illuminated by the lighting system when the lighting system emits lights.

A goal shooting target can be used to develop skills in many sports. The goal shooting target can include a panel that deflects objects when the panel is placed at a face or opening of a sports goal. The panel and sports goal can define target openings through which objects are capable of passing. The panel can be configured to carry a frame of the sports goal such that posts of the sports goal are held off of a support surface upon which the goal shooting target rests.

An Internet of Thing (IoT) device includes a body with a processor, a camera and a wireless transceiver coupled to the processor.

An apparatus for use in conjunction with a goal having a frame defining an opening is provided. The apparatus includes at least two movable blockers adapted to selectively define a target space within the opening. First and second blockers are perpendicular and mounted on portions of the frame. The first blocker has a pair of opposed horizontal first free edges defining a first free space between the first free edges and movable in a vertical direction to increase or decrease the first free space therebetween. The second blocker has a pair of opposed vertical second free edges defining a second free space between the second free edges and movable in a horizontal direction to increase or decrease the second free space therebetween. The first free space and the second free space define the target space.

An adjustable flexible device for use in training activities for stick-based sports. The device is comprised of a flexible material provided in a planar surface in a flattened and free state. The device includes a first end, a second end opposite the first end, and a slot located through the material and configured to securely receive the first end. In use, the device is wrapped into a cylindrical shape around the stick and secured in place via the slot and first end coupling. The device material properties provide that it is collapsible.

A leg pad for a hockey goalkeeper playing hockey (e.g., ice hockey) is provided. The leg pad comprises a frontal portion, a medial portion, and a lateral portion respectively configured to be positioned adjacent to a front, a medial side, and a lateral side of a goalkeeper's leg when the leg pad is worn on the leg. The leg pad comprises an outer shell comprising an outer surface of the leg pad, an inner liner for facing the leg, and protective padding disposed between the molded outer shell and the inner liner. The outer shell may comprise molded foam.

A device to easily mount and hold hockey sticks to a vertical structure, such as a wall. One embodiment includes a vulcanized rubber or EPDM body portion that can be attached to a wall. The body portion has a front recess that receives the shaft of a hockey stick and grips and holds the stick in place. The device can accommodate standard hockey stick shaft widths, and enables easy insertion and removal of hockey sticks.

Articles of sports equipment, such as striking implements (e.g., sticks) and wearable articles (e.g., skates, helmets) for playing hockey or other activities, in which at least one of the characteristics (e.g., stiffness) of the articles of sports equipment is adaptable and can be altered during use of the sports equipment, such as by comprising an alterable component coupled to a controller, by comprising an alterable component that is autonomously alterable, and/or by an alterable component that can be altered in response to a command of a remote device.
