Abstract:
A training apparatus arranged to be portable, collapsible, and able to be configured into different arrangements for different nets and/or different sports-related activities. The training apparatus comprises a support portion, base poles pivotally coupled to the support portion, base brackets coupled to the base poles opposite the support portion, extensions coupled to the base brackets, first and second flexible rods removably coupled to the support portion, and a net configured to be received by the flexible rods. The net is configured to bend the first and second flexible rods from a linear state to an arcuate state, such that a net tension holds the net upright.

Claim (Index 43):
A training apparatus, comprising:\n a support portion having at least a first support portion and a second support portion coupled to a support portion bracket, a first end, and a second end, wherein the first support portion pivots about a first pivot of the support portion bracket, and the second support portion pivots about a second pivot of the support portion bracket, wherein the first and second support portions pivot within a first plane; a first bracket coupled to the first end of the first support portion, and a second bracket coupled to the second end of the second support portion; a first base pole pivotally coupled to the first bracket, and a second base pole pivotally coupled to the second bracket, wherein the first base pole pivots about a third pivot of the first bracket, and the second base pole pivots about a fourth pivot of the second bracket, wherein the first and second base poles pivot within a second plane; a plurality of first extensions pivotally coupled to a first base bracket, wherein the first base bracket is coupled to the first base pole opposite the first bracket, wherein the first extensions pivot about respective pivots of the first base bracket such that the first extensions pivot within a third plane; a plurality of second extensions pivotally coupled to a second base bracket, wherein the second base bracket is coupled to the second base pole opposite the second bracket, wherein the second extensions pivot about respective pivots of the second base bracket such that the second extension pivot within a fourth plane; and a first flexible rod removably coupled proximate the first end of the support portion, and a second flexible rod removably coupled proximate the second end of the support portion, wherein the first and second flexible rod are adapted to be bent from a linear state into an arcuate state such that the first and second flexible rods are biased towards each other in order to lock the support portion bracket.
