Abstract: An apparatus for projecting a soccer ball includes a generally horizontal base and a frame extending upwardly from the base including a pair of spaced apart vertical memebers. Each vertical member has a plurality of vertically spaced attachment locations. A sling including a pouch for receiving a ball is attached to a selected set of the attachment locations. A set of elongated elastomeric members are attached to a selected set of the attachment locations for supporting the pouch in the frame. The pouch is constructed of a flacid conformable sheet bounded by a perimeter and has an inner surface including frictionally engaging ribs for engaging the ball sufficiently to impart a spin on the ball upon the ball's projection therefrom. An H-shaped handle is fixed to the pouch perimeter at a plurality of points for imparting a ball-projecting pull on the sling.
