    Abstract: A multi-task, exercising, sports use type backboard, “MTESB” which is comprised of a number of hinged connected panels with 2 sets of 2 rectangular, telescoping legs configured in the shape of an “A” hinged at the top and connected on each side of the panels. The device, MTESB, is foldable for compact storage and transportation and has a set of casters and handle attached to accommodate this. When unfolded and unlocked and supporting telescoping legs are extended, the device presents a self-supported moveable backboard for sports activities such as, but not limited to, tennis or basketball practice. The device is self-expandable by means of the spring hinges and unfolds automatically when the locking device is released. The unfolded target area for the activity is comprised of the hinged panels and the frontal telescoping legs, which become a total flat target surface to rebound the ball used for the activity.
