Method for teaching basketball shooting techniques

摘要

A device for teaching proper basketball shooting techniques including a pair of vertically disposed, horizontally spaced transparent panels that form a shooter restricting enclosure having a substantially open front and rear. The panel on the side of the shooting hand extends to the rear further than the panel on the side of the off hand. The enclosure is positioned so that the open front is directed toward the basket and the shooter is positioned with the shooting hand, elbow, and corresponding knee and foot between the panels, with their off hand side knee and foot positioned outside of the enclosure, and their torso positioned at the rear edge of the off hand side panel. A vertically adjustable defensive obstruction is movably attached to the front edge of one of the panels to simulate a defensive player over which the shot must be made. The device is supported on floor engaging wheels so that the device will move if contacted by the shooter and alert the coaching staff of improper shooting technique. An optional L-shaped attachment panel allows the shooter's entire body to be positioned within an enclosure.
