Recommended Equipment for
SMARTfit™
System
Your

system is tough, durable and designed to take a beating. However, because it is
a computer, the following equipment list will be helpful in preserving its longevity. Following is
the recommended equipment list:
•
Air-filled regulation athletic balls (tennis, basketball, football, volleyball, soccer, etc.)
•
Rubber practice baseballs, softballs, lacrosse, cricket or T-Balls (need to bounce).
•
PassBack Footballs
•
Playground balls of all diameters
•
Beanbags or dead balls for single directional
play
•
Swim Noodles or foam bats for striking the
targets
•
2 lb. or 1 kilo medicine ball (maximum weight)
•
BOSU balls or other balance devices for standing, sitting or lying
•
Implements for striking the balls (hockey sticks, paddles, padded bats, rackets, etc.)
•
Cones to provide barriers or direction
•
Padded 2, 5, or ten-pound hand weights (protect the panel from developing strike marks)
The following equipment is supplied with your purchase of a
SMARTfit system. See spec sheets for quantity details.

What Equipment
NOT
to use on your
SMARTfit™
System
•
Regulation baseball. It will NOT return properly because there is no bounce. Over time it
will damage the electronic connectors.
•
Regulation lacrosse balls. Over time they may scuff the stations and damage the electronics.
•
Regulation cricket balls.
•
3 pounds and greater medicine balls for throwing at the system. (Okay to use a heavier
medicine ball to
touch
the targets while holding the medicine ball with hands).
•
Any hard solid plastic implement such as a stick or bat for hitting targets.
