Reflex balls aid in reflex training for various sports and hand-eye coordination. They have protruding sides that cause unpredictable bounces, forcing athletes to react quickly. Different sizes are available for different sports, and string-attached balls are useful for children’s hand-eye coordination.

A reflex ball is a ball specially designed to be used in reflex training training. There are several different types of reflex balls produced to aid in training for different sporting activities, as well as balls specifically designed to develop hand-eye coordination. A sports training reflex ball is typically designed with several protruding sides, usually round in shape, which causes it to bounce unpredictably. On the other hand, hand-eye coordination balls are often attached to a string like a yoyo and thrown, controlled by the string, and returned to the hand. These balls are especially useful for developing a child’s hand-eye coordination.

Reflexive training forces athletes to respond quickly to unpredictable situations to prepare them for the contingent events of games. The protruding sides of a ball designed for reflex training, usually six in number, cause the ball to bounce unevenly. As a result, when an athlete bounces the ball, he is forced to react to the unexpected direction the ball bounces. Working with such a reflex ball encourages athletes to develop their reflexes in response to the unpredictable movements of the ball.

Reflex bouncing balls are produced in a variety of sizes to aid in preparation for different sports. Smaller balls result in faster bounces, making them useful training tools for sports like tennis, handball, and baseball. Using a six-sided reflex ball to practice tennis forces the athlete to react to situations where they cannot predict the direction the ball will take when hit, either by itself or by an opponent. Such training helps players speed up reflex timing and hand-eye coordination to prepare for the contingencies of the game itself.

Larger bouncing reflex balls are designed to work well in reflex training for basketball, soccer, and volleyball, among other sports. Regardless of the sport in question, reflex balls can aid in the development of hand-eye coordination and body reflexes. Reflex balls that are attached to a string are especially useful for working on a child’s hand-eye coordination. These balls are attached to the wrist with a string and controlled by the string when thrown. Maneuvering the ball back into the pitcher’s hand focuses on the hand-eye relationship and forces the body to react to whatever direction the ball might take.
