Abstract (en)

The invention relates to a training device for tennis players, formed by a lower support (1) with a first vertical segment (11) and a second inclined segment (12) associated with a flexible shaft (2) by means of locking holes and a transverse fastener (5), which flexible shaft is attached to an elastic cord (3) from which a tennis ball (4) is suspended, the support being fixed to the ground by means of guy lines (7) with end stakes (9) and an anchoring plate (13) secured with fixing screws (8). In order to slow down the movement of the ball, the inclined tube (12) can be provided with tensioning or straightening springs and be positioned on a trapezoidal platform allowing it to have a bending movement. The shaft (2) internally incorporates a rigid wire or cable extending therein and which is wound around the self-winding reel.
