Abstract: A practice and/or training device for building fine motor skills for sports that use a stick, racket, or paddle with a ball. The device is shaped to resemble the sport's original racket/stick/paddle shape (e.g., tennis racket or lacrosse stick) but is not designed for competition in mind. Instead, the device provides a variety of skill building features for the user to practice ball control skills including rails, tracks, exaggerated surface areas, scoops, ridges, grooves, ramps, undulations, textures (bumps, serrations, etc), holes, platforms, cups, and springy meshes. The combination of these features on the device allows the user to practice combinations of “freestyle” skills and tricks to improve hand eye coordination using the device with a ball.
