发明名称 Method and means for practicing free throws
摘要 A basketball free throw training apparatus has a frame having a top horizontal bar. The horizontal bar is adjustably mounted for vertical positioning on the frame, so that the bar can be raised in a horizontal position with respect to the frame and with respect to the floor upon which the frame is mounted. A pair of upstanding closely spaced guidebars extend upwardly from the bar and have a horizontal space therebetween sufficiently wide to permit a basketball to freely pass therebetween. The frame has an extended arm thereon which can be pivoted to a horizontal position and which can extend between the frame and the backboard of a basket so that the frame is accurately positioned from the basket based upon the stature and shooting technique of the user of the equipment. This arm is length adjustable so as to accommodate the spacing requirements of persons of different stature and skill. The method of using the foregoing equipment comprises positioning the frame in front of a basketball basket in spaced relation thereto; raising the bar to a height commensurate with the high point of the shooting trajectory of the person using the equipment, and spacing the bar horizontally from a basket a distance equal to the distance required for a basketball shot by a person to fall from the high point of the trajectory through the basket.
