A method for portable drill instruction for a sport can include: capturing a live video of a player of the sport in a venue for the sport playing a ball launched from a ball machine during a training drill for the player conducted in the venue; determining in response to the live video whether or not the player satisfies a training goal of the training drill when playing the ball; and providing a real-time feedback to the player during the training drill that indicates to the player whether or not the training goal is satisfied.

The sports training system includes a first housing including a transmitter; a second housing including a receiver and a wireless communication module; a plurality of illuminating targets in communication with the wireless communication module; and a remote control in wireless communication with the transmitter, the receiver, and the plurality of illuminating targets. In operation, the transmitter projects a transmission and the receiver is positioned laterally away from the transmitter and receives the transmission. In response to an object passing between the transmitter and receiver, the receiver is blocked from receiving the transmission. In response to the receiver being blocked from receiving the transmission, a selected one of the targets illuminates. Input from the remote control controls operation of one of the transmitter, the receiver, or one of the plurality of illuminating targets.

A computer-implemented American soccer training and evaluation method that includes subjecting a drilling user to pre-defined drilling protocol(s) of a plurality of American soccer drilling assemblies and obtain, from each pre-defined drilling protocol(s) of the plurality of American soccer drilling assemblies and from at least one sensor on each of the assemblies, at least one user physical characteristic of the drilling user. The user physical characteristic is communicated to an administrative server over a network, where it is stored and used to create a drilling user performance profile having individualized performance comparisons with respect to the at least one user physical characteristic of the drilling user and a performance benchmark. Then, the drilling user performance profile is communicated to at least one of a plurality of electronic computing devices of a plurality of consuming users for evaluation and review.

Provided herein is a gaming assembly having two or more collapsible frames, two or more facings, and one or more means for attachment. Each of the frames may be composed of first and second upright frame members that are connected by one or more crossbar frame members to define a vertical plane. Each of the two or more facings is configured to fasten to the upright frame members and the crossbar frame members, covering the vertical plane. The facings feature one or more means for capturing the one or more means for attachment, such as by means of magnetic strips. The means for attachment may be made of a material such as rope with pieces of magnetic metal attached at each end, and is used to connect a first frame to a second frame.

Systems, methods, and media for a configurable training system are provided. The configurable training system can include a controller and one or more configurable training devices. The configurable training device can include a housing, a cover coupled to a front surface of the housing, a sensor located within the housing to detect an impact, an indicator located within the housing and configured to emit light, and communication circuitry coupled with the indicator and the sensor. The communication circuitry may be coupled with the controller. The configurable training system may be adapted to various athletic training equipment or other equipment for physical activity.

A batting cage assembly including a plurality of upright frames to support a batting cage net, where the plurality of upright frames are interconnected using cross members that include two vertical end segments and a horizontal segment positioned between the two corresponding vertical end segments. A batting cage net is connected to the plurality of upright frames.

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 stick handling training device is provided. A stick handling training device for practicing stick handling drills having a board surface. A plurality of lights affixed to an underside of the board surface. One or more sensors affixed to the underside of the board surface that detects a presence of one or more physical stimuli. One or more objects for stick handling having a member that generates physical stimuli and an interface display, wherein a user moves the one or more objects across the board surface. The plurality of lights turning on and off in a specific order such that only one light is on at a same time providing an appearance that a single light may be moving in a drill pattern. One or more sensors tracking at least one characteristic of the one or more objects for stick handling and the interface displaying at least one characteristic.

A sport training apparatus, such as for hockey or soccer (e.g. football) having an elongated base member and one or more stick members coupled to the elongated base member. One or more support members extend from under the elongated base member to rest on a training surface. A projectile, such as a puck, may pass under the elongated base member. The stick members may have an angle from about 0-degrees to about 180-degrees with respect to the elongated base member.

A hockey faceoff training device has a base for placement on a playing surface, support posts standing upright from the base for placement of disc weights thereover into stacked condition atop the base for weighted anchoring thereof on the playing surface, a connector removably attached to top ends of the posts, and an impact member coupled to said connector via a moveable joint from which the impact members extends downwardly toward the playing surface in a default position. The movable joint comprises a coil spring situated inline with a proximal end of the impact member to bias the impact member into the default position. The base has deployable and retractable spikes to better grip the playing surface. The topside of the base comprises recessed access cavities to accommodate a user's fingers during placement or removal of the disc weights onto or from the base.
