Abstract
A football training device for teaching a user the proper throwing mechanics to obtain optimal football ball release timing, as well as the correct takeaway motion of a quarterback or any other person, wherein the present invention assists, and when necessary corrects, the user in taking a football from an unloaded football position to a loaded football position.
Claims20
A football training device comprising:
- a wearable vest having a breast plate;
- and
- a deformable corrective member, the deformable corrective member consisting essentially of an elongate tubular-shaped member having a proximal end and a distal end, the proximal end being attached only to breast plate and the elongate tubular-shaped member extending outwardly substantially perpendicular to the breast plate of the vest, wherein the elongate tubular-shaped member is positioned on the breast plate on a side of the breast plate that relates to the throwing hand of a user and is positioned at a height on the breast plate that alerts a user of a low football takeaway from a neutral position to a loaded football ball position.
A football training device for improving a ball takeaway of a quarterback to a loaded football ball position, the football training device comprising:
- a wearable vest having a breast plate adjacent to a chest of the quarterback;
- and
- a corrective member, each corrective member consisting essentially of an elongate tubular-shaped member having a proximal end releasably attached only to the breast plate of the vest so that the elongate tubular-shaped member extends substantially perpendicular from the c breast plate of the vest, wherein the elongate tubular-shaped member is configured to release from the breast plate upon contact of the elongate tubular-shaped member with an arm of a user during a throwing motion, wherein the elongate tubular-shaped member is positioned on the breast plate on a side of the breast plate that relates to the throwing hand of a user at a height on the breast plate that alerts the user of a low football takeaway from a neutral position to the loaded football ball position.
A football training device for improving a ball takeaway of a quarterback to a loaded football ball position, the football training device comprising:
- a wearable vest having a breast plate adjacent to the chest of the quarterback;
- and
- at least one deformable corrective member having a proximal end and a distal end, wherein the proximal end of the at least one deformable corrective member is releasably attached only to the breast plate of the wearable vest, and the distal end of the at least one deformable corrective member extends perpendicularly away only from the breast plate of the wearable vest;
- wherein each deformable corrective member consists essentially of an elongate tubular-shaped member, wherein the elongate tubular-shaped member is positioned on the breast plate of the vest on a side of the breast plate that relates to the throwing hand of the quarterback at a height on the breast plate that alerts the quarterback of a low football takeaway for receiving contact with an arm of the quarterback during a quarterback football transition from the low football takeaway to the loaded football ball position.
