Abstract: A dummy for practicing hockey checking composed of a base, an upper body, and a mechanism for controlling the dummy's motion. The generally cylindrical base has a foundation, an upwardly-extending column, and is weighted. The weight can be a solid weight or a removable material, such as sand or water, in a hollow container in the base. The upper body core is a column that slides onto or into the base column. A torso and a head is composed of a hard but resilient material. Rolled foam arms optionally have bendable wires for retaining the arms in a desired position. The upper body is covered with standard hockey clothing and equipment and a stick is secured to the gloves. The height of the dummy is adjustably by sliding and locking the base and upper body columns relative to each other. The undersurface of the base is smooth or has wheels or knobs in order to easily slide along the playing surface.
