  • Patent number: 3948517
    Abstract: An apparatus for practising stroking a ball with a racket as in the game of tennis which provides an indication of correct execution of a stroke comprising a racket target means and a rotating ball means. The rotating ball means is mounted for rotation in a vertical plane upon being struck. A path defining means is provided which arrests the rotation of the ball except when it has been hit correctly.The racket target means is a U-shaped frame mounted on the upper end of a vertically upstanding support member. The U-shaped frame member is mounted such that its legs extend horizontally from the support post. The free end of each leg being remote from the support post and being co-planar in a substantially vertical plane. A tethered ball is suspended from the upper leg of said U-shaped frame such that when the ball is hit by a racket it will travel in a substantially vertical plane around the longitudinal axis of the upper leg.
