Abstract
A sports training apparatus for practicing lacrosse comprising an elongate rigid member extending along a length between first and second ends, first and second stops secured to the elongate rigid member, and a slidable mass on the elongate rigid member, slidable along the elongate rigid member between the first aid second stops. A kit for retrofitting a lacrosse stick for practicing lacrosse composing first and second stops, securable to a lacrosse stick; and a slidable mass, having a passage along an axis there through. The instant abstract is neither in tended to define the invention disclosed in this specification nor intended to limit the scope of the invention in any way.
Claims19
A lacrosse training device comprising:
- an elongated shaft having an interior bore and retaining a free flowing sliding mass moving axially collinear with the bore along a length of said shaft, the sliding mass having travel constrained by a first stop and a second stop positioned external to the elongated shaft, wherein the sliding mass is not impeded by any structure within the bore between the first and second stops.
A sports training apparatus for practicing lacrosse comprising:
- an elongate shaft formed of a rigid member extending along a length between a gripping portion at a proximal end and incorporating a slide portion at a distal end;
- a first stop secured to the slide portion at or near the distal end;
- a second stop secured to the slide portion proximal to said first stop;
- a free flowing slidable mass retained on said slide portion on said elongated shaft between said first stop and said second stop and external to the elongated shaft, wherein the slidable mass is not impeded by any structure within the slide portion between the first and second stops;
- and
- said slidable mass has a weight and a center of gravity selected to replicate a release motion of a lacrosse ball.
A sports training apparatus for practicing lacrosse comprising:
- an elongate shaft formed of a rigid member extending along a length and having a gripping portion at a proximal end;
- an angled axial extension affixed at a distal terminus of the elongate shaft, the axial extension having an interior channel;
- a first stop secured to said axial extension at a first end;
- a second stop secured to said axial extension at a second end;
- a freely moving slidable mass positioned in said interior channel of the axial extension between said first stop and said second stop that are located external to the interior channel, wherein said slidable mass has a weight and a center of gravity selected to replicate a lacrosse ball release motion, and wherein the slidable mass is not impeded by any structure within the interior channel between the first and second stops.
