Also provided is one or more resilient shock absorbing strike plates which extend from, and are disposed about, the peripheral portion to define a cavity disposed below the central or peripheral portions. Each strike plate has an inwardly sloped wall adjacent the cavity. This sloped wall is disposed at an obtuse angle to the cavity. Also provided is an elastic membrane extending through the cavity. The membrane has a stiffness less than that of one of the strike plates to which it is connected.
