Abstract
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.
