BASKETBALL SHOOTING TRAINING AID

摘要

A training aid that attaches to a person's forearm to help correctly position the persons shooting arm when shooting a basketball. The training aid includes a block structure that can be removably secured to the person's forearm on their shooting arm adjacent to the crease of the person's elbow. The block structure is worn on the person's arm while shooting and is configured such that when the person brings their elbow up to shoot the basketball, the block structure contacts the person's bicep to prevent the forearm from going less than 90 degrees with the upper arm.
