An adjustable helmet includes a first shell, a second shell, and a size adjustment mechanism. The first shell includes a first side portion and a second side portion. The second shell is positioned between the first side portion and the second side portion. The first side portion and the second side portion of the first shell (a) at least partially overlap the second shell and (b) are laterally flexible with respect to one another to facilitate adjusting a size of the first shell between a minimum size and a maximum size. The size adjustment mechanism includes a tensioner extending between the first side portion and the second side portion. The size adjustment mechanism facilitates ratchet-less and infinite adjustment of the size of the first shell between the minimum size and the maximum size without requiring user manipulation of the size adjustment mechanism.

An electronic athletic training system includes a first detection device and a second detection device, each of which includes a transmitter, a receiver, one or more visual indicators, a processor, and a computer-readable storage medium. A transmitter of one detection device emits a light beam to the receiver of the other detection device when the transmitter is in proximity to the receiver. A detection device performs one or more actions in response to detecting that the light beam has been broken.

An impact absorbing pad includes a first layer and a second layer. The first layer has a first body-facing surface configured to be positioned adjacent a garment and a first outer surface opposite the first body-facing surface. The first layer comprises a first foam having a first density. The first layer defines a first plurality of voids that extend through the first layer at a first plurality of positions. The second layer has a second body-facing surface positioned adjacent the first outer surface of the first layer and a second outer surface opposite the second body-facing surface. The second layer comprises a second foam having a second density that is different than the first density. The second layer defines a second plurality of voids that extend through the second layer at a second plurality of positions. Portions of the first outer surface of the first layer are visible through the second plurality of voids of the second layer.

An adjustable helmet includes a main shell having a first side portion, and a second side portion. The first side portion and the second side portion are laterally flexible with respect to one another. The adjustable helmet includes a secondary shell coupled to the main shell at a location between the first side portion and the second side portion. At least a portion of the first side portion and at least a portion of the second side portion each extends over at least a portion of a top surface of the secondary shell. The adjustable helmet includes a tensioning device. A first end of the tensioning device is coupled to the first side portion and a second end of the tensioning device is coupled to the second side portion so as to provide a tension force between the first side portion and the second side portion.

A base assembly for a batting tee includes a base having a base guide path formed in an upper surface of the base, and a track plate positioned such that the track plate covers at least a portion of the upper surface of the base. The track plate includes a first segment and a second segment that surrounds at least a portion of the first segment. A position of the first segment relative to a position of the second segment defines a track plate guide path that extends between the first segment and the second segment such that the track plate guide path has a same shape as the base guide path and is positioned above the base guide path. Alignment of the track plate guide path and the base guide path form a non-linear track, such that the track is configured to slidably receive a portion of a tee.

An ambidextrous face guard includes an attachment portion having at least two attachment points. The attachment portion extends from a first end of the ambidextrous face guard toward a second end of the ambidextrous face guard along a slope. The ambidextrous face guard includes a protective portion extending from the attachment portion toward the second end of the ambidextrous face guard along the slope. A line of symmetry extends along at least the attachment portion from the first end of the ambidextrous face guard toward the second end of the ambidextrous face guard such that the line of symmetry defines two symmetric portions of the ambidextrous face guard that each extend along at least a portion of a length of the ambidextrous face guard. The ambidextrous face guard is configured to attach to a right side and a left side of a headgear via the attachment points.

A compliant shin guard includes an outer shell composed of an impact absorbing material and an inner padding mounted to the inner surface of the outer shell. A plurality of vents extend through the outer shell and the inner padding, the plurality of vents being distributed across the outer surface of the outer shell. A raised channel extends at least partially along the length of the outer shell to provide rigidity to the outer shell.

A lens for reducing glare and improving color discrimination includes a lens wafer containing a rare earth oxide such as neodymium that provides progressively higher transmittance at 540 nm than at 500 nm and at 450 nm, and average transmittance at 540 and 610 nm that is greater than the transmittance at 580 nm. A ultra-violet absorber, a polarized filter and anti-reflective layer may be included to reduce UV light, glare and improve contrast and vision.
