Pickleball Training System
A pickleball training system having a paddle, ball, and elastic cord. The paddle has a planar head hitting service and a handle extending from the head. The ball is a hollow sphere having a plurality of perforations in a surface of the sphere. The cord is an elastic member with a dowel connected to a first end of the cord. The dowel and first end of the cord are connected to the ball and a second end of the cord is connected to the paddle. The dowel and first end of the cord are connected to the ball by passing the dowel and first end of the cord through one of the perforations of the ball. The second end of the cord is connected to the paddle by passing the cord first through the through bore of the paddle head and then through the through bore in the handle.
Golf swing training aid
This invention relates to a golf swing training aid useful for training swing speed and swing efficiency. The inventive swing training aid includes a golf club shaft that has open proximal and distal ends and a grip. The interior of the shaft is a hollow chamber and the diameter decreases gradually from the proximal end to the distal end. A cable is captured within the hollow chamber and extends from the distal end of the shaft, terminating in an integrally formed attachment loop. A weighted ball is removably linked to the attachment loop by a connector.
Game machine and game system
A game machine makes it possible to make an accurate determination of not only success but also failure with regard to a predetermined play action, and can handle various play rules. The game machine includes at least one game machine main body, and at least one game machine sub unit configured to enable a play by being arranged in a predetermined position on the game machine main body, and is characterized in that, to provide an evaluation of successful play when the game machine sub unit is positioned in the predetermined position on the game machine main body, the game machine main unit and/or the game machine sub unit is provided with a position grasping unit for grasping a positional relationship of the main body and the sub unit. The position grasping unit includes a sensing device utilizing an electric change.
Handle for a cognitive training device and cognitive training device comprising same
Cognitive training handle designed to be connected by a longitudinal connecting means to a connection means on a ball, said handle also comprising a means for adjusting the length of said longitudinal connecting means.
FETCH TOY WITH INTERNALLY ANCHORED ELASTIC CORD
A toy includes a hollow elastomeric object with an elastic tether extending through a narrow aperture in the object from an anchor contained within the object. The free end of the tether includes a handle. About 12 to 24 inches of tether extend from the object. The object is a suitable size and shape for playing fetch with a dog. The anchor is larger (e.g., wider) than the aperture, thus impeding inadvertent removal of the anchor through the aperture.
Adapted fitness equipment
An exercise apparatus includes an adjustable frame being attachable to an assistive ambulation device. The adjustable frame includes removable handles, fitting arms located on a lower portion of the adjustable frame to receive a fitness attachment, and attachment points on located on the lower portion of the adjustable frame to couple a resistance device. A jump rope trainer includes a handle; flexible tubing including a handle fastener to connect the handle to the flexible tubing; and a soft sphere shaped object. The flexible tubing includes a soft sphere shaped object fastener to connect the soft sphere shaped object to the flexible tubing.

BASEBALL-TRAINING DEVICE
A baseball-training device disclosed here is configured for training a baseball player. The baseball-training device includes an elongate rod, a bearing assembly, a rope member, and a ball. The elongate rod is configured to be held by a first player, and the bearing assembly is fixedly attached at a distal end of the elongate rod. The rope member is attached to a projected ring on the circumference of the bearing assembly, and a ball is fastened to a distal end of the rope member. The first player rotates the elongate rod in a predefined direction to allow the ball to swing in a generally circular manner with respect to the axis of the elongate rod, where a second player is required to aim and strike the ball using a baseball bat.
Percussive Swing Training Assembly
A percussive swing training assembly incorporating a flexible tie having a radially outer end, having a radially inner end, and having a medial section spanning between said ends; a percussive contact element; a radially outer swivel joint positioning the percussive contact element at the flexible tie's radially outer end and facilitating rotation of the percussive contact element with respect to the flexible tie's radially outer end; a medial handle; a medial swivel joint positioning the medial handle at the flexible tie's medial section and facilitating rotation of the flexible tie's medial section with respect to the medial handle; a radially inner handle; and a radially inner swivel joint positioning the radially inner handle at the flexible tie's radially inner end and facilitating rotation of the flexible tie's radially inner end with respect to the radially inner handle.
Mr. Hitter, Interactive baseball batting/hitting training device
This invention is a device to improve the hand eye coordination of baseball and softball hitters. It is used to allow the hitter to practice their swinging techniques and develop good swing mechanics in a short period of time by providing multiple repetitious looks at the ball. The device consists of a short wooden bat with a predetermined length of rope attaching the bat to the ball. The coach uses the bat to swing the ball into the hitting zone in front of the hitter every few seconds allowing multiple swings at the ball in a repetitive manner. When hit the ball only travels a few feet for easy retrieval by the coach allowing for maximum hitting attempts in a short period of time.
