Abstract: A hockey training device having a simulated puck, adapted to be propelled by a hockey stick over a playing surface. The puck is connected to to a resilient member which restrain the latter's motion over the playing surface. The puck is connected, through a slot, to a movable carriage beneath the playing surface. The carriage is connected to the resilient member the force of which can be adjusted. The force of the resilient member must be overcome in propelling the puck thus strengthening the player's shot. The resilient member return the puck to a start position after each practice shot.
