A backstop (100) for training of a bat-and-ball game such as backyard cricket, including (a) a body (103) having a central portion (105) flanked by a side portion (110) on either side, and each side portion is adjustable at an angle less than 180 degrees relative to the central portion so that the backstop is capable of standing upright on a supporting surface (115); and (b) one or more target areas (120) on the body, wherein each target area is configured to act as one portion of a hook and loop fastener for attaching to a corresponding portion of the hook and loop fastener on a sporting equipment (180, 190) such that when contact is made between a target area within the backstop and said sporting equipment, the target area fastens to said sporting equipment, thereby interfering with movement of said sporting equipment. |
