Abstract: A disk launching apparatus that employs a handle connected to a flexible shaft that is connected to a launching head. The head includes a first arcuate portion and a second arcuate portion arranged in a semi-circular configuration to define a space in which a disk is retained in contact with the first and second arcuate members. At least one securing point is located on the first arcuate member and a plurality of securing points located on the second arcuate member. An elastic band is attached between the first securing point on the first arcuate member and one of the plurality of securing points located on the second arcuate member, thereby crossing a disk held within the launching head.

A ring-like protective cap formed of plastic is mounted in the concrete enclosure and circumscribes the opening. The ring-like cap has a side wall, a continuous outwardly extending rim formed integral with the upper extremity of the side wall and a continuous inwardly extending rim formed integral with the lower extremity of the side wall. The side wall has formed integral therewith vertically extending spaced apart rib portions which are tapered inwardly into the opening as they extend downwardly. The inwardly extending rim having vertically extending horizontally disposed rib portions in alignment with the rib portions on the side walls. An upstanding lip is formed integral with the inwardly extending rim. The upstanding lip extends parallel to but is spaced from the side wall.
