Abstract
An adjustable batting tee is provided which includes a first plate member shaped like home plate, a second plate member spaced apart from the first plate member and an elongated armature adjustably interconnecting the first and second plate members such that the relative position of the second plate member with respect to the first plate member can be selectively adjusted. An upright ball support member is attached to the second plate member for supporting a ball to be hit that includes telescoping post members which permit the height of the ball to be selectively adjusted. The armature and uppermost post are flexible so as to absorb the forces generated by the user hitting the ball or ball support member.
