Abstract: A training net device for all types of ball games includes an inextensible net which is spread between a plurality of parallel rigid posts. The rigid posts are detachably attached by elastic binders to rigid elongated stiffeners on each side of the net. The stiffeners are pivotally connected in consecutive sequence. A locking mechanism for fixing the position of one of the stiffeners relative to an adjacent one is also disclosed. The locking mechanism includes a plurality of notches cooperatively engaging the pivotal connection. The device is then mounted to one of several disclosed support members.

Abstract: A training device for football or other ball games comprises an inextensible net stretched between two opposed side edges integral with rectilinear and semi-rigid members. These members are connected to the uprights of a frame by elastic tensioning members attached to hooks of the frame. The upper and lower longitudinal edges are integral with elastic tensioning members extending from one member to the other. The device facilitates training without having to run after the ball.
