Definitions
- Throwing or passing is an essential skill in football. Improving football throwing skills involves throwing arm strength, accuracy and timing. The football must also maintain a spiral orientation so that it can be more easily caught by the intended receiver. As with most athletic endeavors, perfecting passing ability may take years of practicing by throwing a football. Generally, during practice the player throws the football to a second player who catches and returns the football. Practicing alone, however, is much more time consuming and less useful because the player must spend excessive time retrieving the ball after each practice pass.
- a football throwing trainer has a football holder including first and second end caps adapted to fit over the ends of a football. Holder straps connect the first and second end caps and hold the end caps securely onto the ends of the football. A tether is attached to the first end cap and to a belt or cuff. The trainer allows a lone player to practice throwing a football and to easily retrieve the thrown football.
- the end caps may have a central opening and comprise a flexible material and have two, three, four, or more spaced apart arms, with the holder straps attached to the arms of the end caps.
- the holder straps may be attached to one of the arms by looping through a strap slot in the arm.
- the holder straps may be elastic or have an elastic section.

Abstract
Description
- Throwing or passing is an essential skill in football. Improving football throwing skills involves throwing arm strength, accuracy and timing. The football must also maintain a spiral orientation so that it can be more easily caught by the intended receiver. As with most athletic endeavors, perfecting passing ability may take years of practicing by throwing a football. Generally, during practice the player throws the football to a second player who catches and returns the football. Practicing alone, however, is much more time consuming and less useful because the player must spend excessive time retrieving the ball after each practice pass.
- For throwing practicing with a round ball, such as soccer or baseball, a player can use a return net where the ball rebounds back towards the player. Unfortunately, rebound nets do not work well for oblong balls, like a football. Due to its oblong shape, a football tends to rebound off of a return net in a random direction, rather than rebound back towards the player. Accordingly, there is a need for equipment which overcomes the disadvantages facing the lone player in practicing throwing a football.
- A football throwing trainer has a football holder including first and second end caps adapted to fit over the ends of a football. Holder straps connect the first and second end caps and hold the end caps securely onto the ends of the football. A tether is attached to the first end cap and to a belt or cuff. The trainer allows a lone player to practice throwing a football and to easily retrieve the thrown football.
- In another aspect the end caps may have a central opening and comprise a flexible material and have two, three, four, or more spaced apart arms, with the holder straps attached to the arms of the end caps. The holder straps may be attached to one of the arms by looping through a strap slot in the arm. The holder straps may be elastic or have an elastic section.
- Other and further aspects will become apparent from the following detailed description and the drawings.
-
FIG. 1 is a front perspective view of a football throwing trainer. -
FIG. 2 is a back perspective view of the trainer shown inFIG. 1 . -
FIG. 3 is an enlarged back perspective view of the trainer ofFIGS. 1 and 2 with the belt and tether removed. -
FIG. 4 is an enlarged rotated perspective view of the end cap shown inFIGS. 1-3 . -
FIG. 5 is front view of the end cap shown inFIG. 4 . -
FIG. 6 is an enlarged perspective view of the trainer shown inFIGS. 1 and 2 . - As shown in
FIGS. 1 and 2 , afootball throwing trainer 10 may be described as having atether 14 attaching afootball holder 16 to abelt 12. Thebelt 12 may be flexible web material, such as leather, fabric, or a synthetic material such as neoprene rubber. Thetether 14 may be a flexible line, tube, cable or flat elastic webbing. Generally, at least a portion of thetether 14 is elastic to allow the tether to stretch in use. Thetether 14 may be provided as multiple elastic sections connected via swivels, or via inelastic sections, or it may be a single piece. A first end of thetether 14 is attached to thebelt 12, optionally via abelt swivel 34. - The
belt 12 may be worn around the player's waist, with the belt having a length made adjustable via a buckle, clip or via Velcro hook andloop tape 24. In an alternative design, thebelt 12 may be replaced by a cuff designed to be worn on the player's wrist, or attached to a fixed object such as a ground stake or pole. - The
holder 16 may include first andsecond end caps 50, which optionally are identical. Referring toFIGS. 4 and 5 , theend cap 50 may be a flexible material, such as rubber or plastic, typically about 0.5 to 5 mm thick. Theend cap 50 may have a freestanding three dimensional shape, as shown inFIG. 4 , with a prolate spheroid curvature adapted to generally match the shape of a standard American collegiate or NFL football. Theend cap 50 may havearms 60 separated by an arcshaped recess 66. Thearms 60 may have a concave curvature with therecesses 66 having an opposite or convex curvature. Acentral opening 64 may be located at a center of theend cap 50. Thecentral opening 64 may be round or a square with curved corners. Astrap slot 62 may be provided in each of thearms 60. A pair ofweb support slots 68 may be provided on opposite arms, as shown inFIG. 5 . One or more position slots orholes 70 may also be provided in theend cap 50 between adjacent arms. - The
slots straps 52 to pass through theend cap 50. These may be replaced with round openings if round straps are used rather than the flat straps shown inFIG. 3 . Other than theweb support slots 68 and theposition slots 70, if used, theend cap 50 may be symmetrical about its vertical, and horizontal centerlines. Dimension DD inFIG. 3 in most designs is about 10-16 cm as measured with the end cap pressed flat. The end cap may have a height shown as dimension HH inFIG. 4 of 2.5 to 5 cm when free standing. Although theend cap 50 may be a rigid material, flexible end caps may better conform to wider range of football shapes and sizes. - In the example shown, four
holder straps holder straps 52 may be a flat web material, typically an elastic material, or having an elastic section. Thefront holder strap 52A, may be split into segments attachable to each other via Velcro hook and loop tape, a fastener or a knot. Alternatively thefront holder strap 52A may be made long enough to extend from the first end cap, through a slot in the second end cap, and then back towards the first end cap, with theholder strap 52A forming a loop attached to itself. Theside straps strap slots 62, loop back on to themselves and may be stitched, adhered or otherwise fastened. - As shown in
FIG. 6 , thefront holder strap 52A and theback holder strap 52D may be provided as a single continuous strap, optionally extending in through theslot openings 62 and out through theweb support openings 68.cap web section 78 may then be attached onto theholder strap 52A, optionally at front and backinner attachments 80 and front and backouter attachments 82. Thecap web section 78 may be the same material as the straps, and typically is not elastic. Theattachments FIG. 6 , a cap swivel 76 at the outer end of thetether 14 may be attached to thecap web section 78. - Referring back to
FIGS. 1 and 2 , thetether 14 may optionally have anintermediate swivel 76, with anon-elastic tether section 74 connecting theintermediate swivel 76 to thecap swivel 76. If nointermediate swivel 76 is used, then anon-elastic tether section 74 may be attached directly to an elastic tether section connecting to the belt or cuff. The combined weight of theholder 16 and thetether 14 generally is less than 500 or 400 grams. - In use, a
football 100 is secured within the holder by stretching the straps momentarily to allow the end caps 50 to be placed over the ends of the football. The elastic tension of the straps, or sections of the straps, then holds the end caps 50 securely onto the ball. The straps may be equally radially spaced apart to secure the ball within the holder on all sides. The straps may be oriented so that the laces of the football are spaced apart from the straps. Alternatively, if a split or looped front strap is used, the front strap may be momentarily opened or loosened, to allow the holder to be more easily installed around theball 100. - The player attaches the belt around the waist, or attaches the cuff to the wrist. The player then throws the
ball 100. As holder and tether are lightweight, their effect on the trajectory of the ball is moderate. In addition, since the tether is attached on the longitudinal central axis of the ball, via a swivel, interference with the spiral attitude of the ball is reduced. After the ball travels past the nominal length of the tether, the tether stretches, decelerating the ball and ultimately causing the ball to reverse direction and recoil towards the player. The player can then easily retrieve the ball by pulling on the tether. Tension forces applied by the tether in decelerating the ball may be distributed over theweb section 78 and thestraps - As used here, football means any type of oblong ball, such as a football or a rugby ball. Oblong means the length of the ball is at least 1.4 times greater than the maximum diameter of the ball. Elastic or stretchable means easily elongated several centimeters (e.g., 5-10 cm) using nominal hand forces, such as to stretch the holder sufficiently to place into onto a football. Thus, a novel football throwing trainer has been shown and described. Various changes and substitutions may of course be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention. The invention, therefore, should not be limited except by the following claims and their equivalents.
