Abstract
A sports equipment cart includes a first ball dispensing tube having upper and lower ends and defining a bore extending therebetween. The first ball dispensing tube defines an upper ball receiving aperture and a lower ball dispensing aperture. A pair of wheels are rotatably mounted to the first ball dispensing tube adjacent the lower end thereof. The first ball dispensing tube includes a handle for manually pulling the tube between desired locations. A second ball dispensing tube of substantially similar dimensions may be connected to the first ball dispensing tube in side-by-side relationship. A third ball dispensing tube of smaller dimension may also be connected to the first dispensing tube for holding smaller sized balls.

A sports equipment cart, comprising:
- a first ball dispensing tube having upper and lower ends and defining a bore extending between said upper and lower ends, said first ball dispensing tube defining an upper ball receiving aperture at said upper end, said first ball dispensing tube having an annular continuous side wall extending between said upper and lower ends thereof and defining a lower ball dispensing aperture upwardly spaced from said lower end, said side wall forming a lip at said lower end adapted to prevent unintended dispensing of balls through said lower ball dispensing aperture;
- a pair of wheels rotatably mounted to said first ball dispensing tube proximate said lower end thereof;
- and
- means positioned in said first ball dispensing tube adjacent said lower end thereof for urging balls toward said lower ball dispensing aperture, wherein said means for urging balls toward said lower ball dispensing aperture includes an axle extending through said first ball dispensing tube adjacent said lower end thereof and interconnecting said pair of wheels, said axle positioned rearward from said lower ball dispensing aperture so as to direct balls toward said lower ball dispensing aperture.
