Sports Training System with Directional Indicator Cones, Aim-Training Gates, and Sport Case

Abstract

As described, the present disclosure provides a complete sports training system, including an organization case for storing and transporting the training components. More particularly, the sports training system comprises directional cones, aim-training gates, alphanumeric component cones, and supplemental directional indicators. In some aspects, the directional cones may comprise a directional indicator and stabilizing mechanism, wherein the directional indicator may instruct a participant or athlete to proceed in the designated direction. In some embodiments, the directional cones and other training components may be set up to develop a training course.

1 . A directional cone comprising:
 a cone configured to be placed on a planar surface as a visual marker, wherein the visual marker indicates a point on a training path;   a directional indicator extending from the cone in a position generally parallel to the planar surface, wherein the directional indicator is configured to indicate a path direction; and   a stabilizing feature configured to stabilize the directional cone on the planar surface.   
     
     
         2 . The directional cone of  claim 1 , wherein the directional indicator further indicates a relative speed. 
     
     
         3 . The directional cone of  claim 1 , wherein the directional indicator comprises an arrow extending from the cone. 
     
     
         4 . The directional cone of  claim 3 , wherein the arrow comprises a static direction. 
     
     
         5 . The directional cone of  claim 3 , wherein the arrow comprises an adjustable direction. 
     
     
         6 . The directional cone of  claim 1 , wherein the directional indicator is detachable. 
     
     
         7 . The directional cone of  claim 1 , further comprising an identification tag. 
     
     
         8 . The directional cone of  claim 7 , wherein the identification tag is configured to interface with an external device, wherein the identification tag allows the external device to recognize a location of the directional cone. 
     
     
         9 . The directional cone of  claim 8 , wherein the identification tag further allows the external device to recognize the path direction indicated by the directional indicator. 
     
     
         10 . The directional cone of  claim 1 , further comprising an electronic component. 
     
     
         11 . The directional cone of  claim 10 , wherein the electronic component comprises an illumination device. 
     
     
         12 . The directional cone of  claim 11 , wherein the illumination device is configured to project an arrow-shaped illumination projected from the cone. 
     
     
         13 . The directional cone of  claim 1 , wherein the directional cone further comprises an identifying marker. 
     
     
         14 . The directional cone of  claim 1 , wherein the directional cone comprises a plurality of stability features, wherein each of the plurality of stabilizing features is configured to stabilize the directional cone on distinct types of planar surfaces. 
     
     
         15 . The directional cone of  claim 1 , wherein the stabilizing feature is detachable. 
     
     
         16 . A training system comprising:
 a plurality of directional cones, wherein an arrangement of the plurality of directional cones create a training path, wherein each of the directional cones comprise:
 a cone configured to be placed on a planar surface as a visual marker, wherein the visual marker indicates a point on a training path; 
 a directional indicator extending from the cone in a position generally parallel to the planar surface, wherein the directional indicator is configured to indicate a path direction; and 
 a stabilizing feature configured to stabilize the directional cone on the planar surface. 
   
     
     
         17 . The training system of  claim 16 , wherein the training path is configured to improve a user's agility and/or speed. 
     
     
         18 . The training system of  claim 16 , wherein the directional indicators of the plurality of directional cones are interchangeable. 
     
     
         19 . The training system of  claim 16 , wherein each of the plurality of directional cones further comprises an identification tag. 
     
     
         20 . The training system of  claim 19 , wherein at least two of the plurality of directional cones further comprise electronic components, wherein the electronic components enable intercommunication between the at least two of the plurality of directional cones.
