Universal tennis training means

A universal training means comprising:

• (a) a first support member of PVC tubing extending horizontally and defining a first hollow support chamber therein adapted to receive ballast material to facilitate stabilization of the universal tennis training means, said first support member defining a first access hole therein in fluid flow communication with respect to said first hollow support chamber to selectively allow placement and removal of ballast material therein;
• (b) a first lower vertical member of PVC tubing fixedly secured with respect to said first support member and extending vertically upward perpendicularly therefrom;
• (c) a first lower horizontal member of PVC tubing fixedly secured with respect to said first lower vertical member and extending outwardly horizontally therefrom, said first lower horizontal member being oriented perpendicularly with respect to said first lower vertical member and with respect to said first support member;
• (d) a second support member of PVC tubing extending horizontally and defining a second hollow support chamber therein adapted to receive ballast material therein to facilitate stabilization of the universal tennis training means, said second support member defining a second access hole therein in fluid flow communication with respect to said second hollow support chamber to selectively allow placement and removal of ballast material therein;
• (e) a second lower vertical member of PVC tubing fixedly secured with respect to said second support member and extending vertically upward perpendicularly therefrom;
• (f) a second lower horizontal member of PVC tubing fixedly secured with respect to said second lower vertical member and extending outwardly horizontally therefrom toward said first lower horizontal member, said second lower horizontal member being oriented perpendicularly with respect to said second lower vertical member and with respect to said second support member, said second lower horizontal member being telescopically engageable to an extent equal to at least substantially one half of the length thereof with respect to said first lower horizontal member to allow for changes in the lateral spacing between said first lower vertical member and said second lower vertical member;
• (g) a first upper vertical member of PVC tubing extending upwardly from said first lower vertical member and being telescopically engageable therewith to an extent equal to at least substantially one half of the length thereof, said first upper vertical member defining a plurality of first locking apertures therealong, said first upper vertical member including a first vertical locking means thereon to selectively secure said first upper vertical member with respect to said first lower vertical member, said first vertical locking means including a first pin means selectively positionable extending through said first locking apertures;
• (h) a first upper horizontal member of PVC tubing being fixedly secured with respect to said first upper vertical member and extending approximately horizontally and perpendicularly outwardly therefrom;
• (i) a second upper vertical member of PVC tubing extending upwardly from said second lower vertical member and being telescopically engageable therewith to an extent equal to at least substantially one half of the length thereof, said second upper vertical member defining a plurality of second locking apertures therealong, said second upper vertical member including a second vertical locking means thereon to selectively fixedly secure said second upper vertical member with respect to said second lower vertical member, said second vertical locking means including a second pin means selectively positionable extending through said second locking apertures;
• (j) a second upper horizontal member of PVC tubing being fixedly secured with respect to said second upper vertical member and extending approximately horizontally and perpendicularly outwardly therefrom toward said first upper horizontal member and being telescopically engageable therewith to an extent equal to at least substantially one half of the length thereof to allow for changes in the lateral spacing between said first upper vertical member and said second upper vertical member;
• (k) a first reduction coupling means positioned between said first lower vertical member and said first upper vertical member to facilitate telescopic movement therebetween;
• (1) a second reduction coupling means positioned between said second lower vertical member and said second upper vertical member to facilitate telescopic movement therebetween;
• (m) an upper reduction coupling means positioned between said first upper horizontal member and said second upper horizontal member to facilitate telescopic movement therebetween;
• (n) a lower reduction coupling means positioned between said first lower horizontal member and said second lower horizontal member to facilitate telescopic movement therebetween;
• (o) a first capping means selectively positionable at said first access hole to retain ballast material within said first hollow support chamber;
• and
• (p) a second capping means selectively positionable at said second access hole to retain ballast material within said second hollow support chamber.
