  • Patent number: 4842283
    Abstract: A target assembly adapted for mounting on a support is disclosed. The support will preferably include the crossbar and/or posts of a standard hockey goal. The target assembly includes a contact member having a visually observable surface that is contacted by a properly aimed projectile. The contact member is springily associated with a support arm which is used to mount the target assembly to the support. When the surface of the contact member is contacted by a projectile, such as a hockey puck, the contact member is deflected from a predetermined selected target position, to a substantially transverse position, and thereafter, back to the predetermined selected target position. The present target assembly is particularly useful in developing the accuracy with which a projectile is launched, such as, a hockey puck towards a desired area of a goal.
