A backstop for use in limiting the flight of sports balls and other projectiles used in sports. One or more net panels (10, 10') are supported by a plurality of posts (60, 90) comprising an external frame. Preferably, cross members (64, 92) extend between the tops of the posts to provide additional support for the framework. Net panels are connected together to produce differen t configurations by, for example, wrapping a line around bound edges (12) that extend around the perimeter of each of the net panels. Tension lines connect the bound edges of the net panels to the external framework, to support the net pane ls in the desired configuration. Disclosed and described are a backstop (30) suitab le for use in practicing driving a golf ball, and backstop (70) suitable for use be hind a catcher's mound on a baseball diamond. Many other configurations can be made by linking varying numbers of the net panels together and supporting them with an external frame of suitable dimension and configuration.
