1. A method of producing a prosthetic device for handling a ball, comprising:
a) providing an attachment portion configured to couple said prosthetic device to an amputee; b) pivotally coupling a support member having a length disposed between a support first end and a support second end to said attachment portion by said support first end allowing rotation of said support member about a first pivot element, said support member having a support lock which operates to fix orientation of said support member in relation to said attachment portion; and c) pivotally coupling a ball handling structure to said support second end, said ball handling structure having an aperture element through which a second pivot element passes to pivotally couple said ball handling structure to said support second end, said ball handling structure having a ball handling surface configured to engage a ball, said ball handling surface having an opening through which said ball can pass, said opening radially rotatable about a longitudinal axis of said support member by pivoting said ball handling structure about said second pivot element. |
