A flexible insert or tongue for a sports shoe for kicking a ball which self activates upon the strike of a ball to deform in a manner that conforms to the struck curvature surface of the ball to assist in conforming the shoe surface material or the shoe tongue material to the same struck area of the ball and increase the wearers' control and accuracy of the kicked ball. Following the strike the flexible insert or tongue reforms to its original shape and structure for the next strike.

Footwear insert

A flexible insert for a sports shoe for kicking a ball which self activates upon the strike of a ball to deform in a manner that conforms to the struck curvature surface of the ball to assist in conforming the shoe surface material to the same struck area of the ball and increase the wearers' control and accuracy of the kicked ball. Following the strike the flexible insert reforms to its original shape and structure for the next strike.

A knitted, woven, or braided textile ribbon including fibers and having a length and selvage edges and one or more transmission elements running the length of the ribbon in place of one or more of the fibers and integrated with the fibers to transmit data and/or power along the length of the ribbon.

Wearable transmission device

A ball kick-training and practice device with a base having predesignated right and left support foot placement positions and elevated with respect to the foot placement position surfaces, a ball which is attached to a shock absorbing mechanism. The support foot placements are located in such a manner as to require the player assuming the proper foot and body kick positions relative to the ball. The raised ball allows a player to practice kicking the ball with optimum instep of the foot contact and minimal chance of toe stubbing. The shock absorbing mechanism absorbs the force of the practice kick and returns the ball to its initial position relative to the support foot placements so the practice process may be rapidly and consistently repeated. The ball kicking training device's right and left support foot placement positions provides for kick training for either foot utilizing one ball and one shock mechanism.
