Abstract: An illuminated sports board has: a top sheet having a board top surface; a core layer having an optional longitudinal groove; an LED strip can be mounted at least partially within the longitudinal groove; a battery housing mounted on a top surface of the board. A switch is mounted to the battery housing. A first terminal is formed as an aperture mounted to the board top surface. The LED strip is mounted below the top sheet. A first terminal conductor is electrically connecting the first terminal to the LED layer. A second terminal is formed as an aperture mounted to the board top surface. A second terminal conductor electrically connects the second terminal to the LED layer. A first bolt makes electrical connection between the first terminal and the battery housing. A second bolt makes electrical connection between the second terminal and the switch.
