This invention relates to stands for supporting various items of clothing and/or recreational equipment. There are many kinds of stands used for this purpose, from a simple post having hooks to fairly elaborate hall trees.
In connection with the game of ice or street hockey, there are clothing items, such as helmets, jerseys and pants, pads of various kinds, and the hockey skates or roller blades, all of which must, at times, be temporarily stored. Anyone having a child or teenaged hockey player in the house is well aware of the clutter such items can create if not properly stored.
It is an object of the present invention to provide a unique and attractive stand which can be used to support the various items of hockey equipment and clothing and which can provide some motivation for the hockey player to hang up his or her various items of clothing and equipment.
It is another object of the present invention to provide such a stand, which is readily portable and which can be easily stored when not in use.
