A method and device for controlled restraint of the natural hand of a basketball player to permit use of the unnatural hand and arm during practice in order to achieve facility in ball handling and dribbling. A waist loop (12) is connected by a connecting band (16) to a wrist loop (14). At least one loop or the connecting band must be elastic and preferably both loops and the connecting band are elastic. The method comprises providing limited elastic restraint between the wrist of the natural hand and waist of the player, and practicing ball handling and dribbling with the unnatural hand. The restraint of the natural hand is sufficient to prevent unintended use in handling or dribbling the ball while permitting the player to instantly raise or extend his natural hand and arm in order to protect himself in the event of a fall or collision. |
