  • BASEBALL AND SOFTBALL TRAINING DEVICE AND METHOD
    Publication number: 20200353336
    Abstract: A sports training device is configured to be supported by one of the below-grade base anchors typically available at baseball and softball fields. The device comprises a frame made up of a net holding portion and a support portion configured to support the net holding portion. The support portion includes an insert post configured to fit into the base anchor. The net holding portion is configured to be rotatable relative to the support portion about a vertical axis. The net holding portion can also be configured to be moved—and secured in a position—transverse to the vertical axis. The training device can thus be placed in several configurations in order to provide a net target in a desired position so that a player can practice delivering a ball to the net.
