  Great when it stays together August 11, 2008
My son was thrilled to get this for his 10th birthday. He is very athletic and loves both football, and baseball. It's a little inconvenient in that you have to take it down and flip it around and clip it back together to switch from the football side to the baseball side. The worst part is that we left it outside and when it was windy, all of the clips that held it together broke off and it only came with one extra. Needless to say, my son won't be able to use it until we rig something up to make it stay together.

Everything on this trainer is sturdy except for the rubber bands that hold the tarp taut. After just an hour of playing, most of them were broken. I tried a few alternatives to fix the problem (regular rubber bands, cable ties, string) but nothing worked. I finally bought some elastic string from the sewing section at Walmart, and finally found a solution. Now it works just fine. Great, actually.
The only other problem is that it's easier said than done to switch between baseball and football. It takes a least several minutes and it's a bit of a bother. My kids won't switch it themselves; they call me out to help. Plus you have to be careful not to lose the hooks. But if you play the sports in season, it shouldn't matter.

I started using the 2 Sport Trainer with my son and a couple of his friends...it's GREAT! It helps bring out their competitive juices when making throws from the infield. This year I will be using it for infield, outfield, pitching drills. Also makes a decent little backstop for batting practice. Looking forward for the start of the baseball season!

This item assembles quickly and is sturdy. I was surprised by its weight and sturdiness. It looks like it will last for a good long while.
The only thing that I did not realize about this product was that you have to unhook the football side and turn it over for the baseball side, and re-hook it. This is not something that can be done by a child. It is a bit inconvenient.
