Wireless play communication system

Abstract

A wireless play communication system enables communications between a coach and a player. The system includes a coach communication device mounted in a first carrying device that is adapted to be carried by the coach, and a player communication device mounted in a second carrying device that is adapted to be carried by the player. An input mechanism of the coach communication device enables a coach to input a signal. Actuation of a pitch plus button functions to transmit the signal from the coach communication device to the player communication device, while also updating a pitch tracker which tracks the number of pitches thrown by the player. The pitch count is displayed on a pitch count display.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A wireless play communication system for enabling communications between a coach and a player, the wireless play communication system comprising:
 a coach communication device mounted in a first carrying device that is adapted to be carried by the coach;   a player communication device mounted in a second carrying device that is adapted to be carried by the player;   an input mechanism of the coach communication device for enabling a coach to input a signal;   a transmitter for transmitting the signal from the coach communication device to the player communication device.   
     
     
         2 . The wireless play communication system of  claim 1 , further comprising a pitch tracking means for tracking a pitch count of the number of pitches thrown by the player. 
     
     
         3 . The wireless play communication system of  claim 2 , wherein the pitch tracking means includes a computer processor and a computer memory of the coach communication device. 
     
     
         4 . A wireless play communication system for enabling communications between a coach and a player, the wireless play communication system comprising:
 a coach communication device mounted in a first carrying device that is adapted to be carried by the coach;   a player communication device mounted in a second carrying device that is adapted to be carried by the player;   an input mechanism of the coach communication device for enabling a coach to input a signal;   a transmitter for transmitting the signal from the coach communication device to the player communication device;   a pitch tracking means for tracking a pitch count of the number of pitches thrown by the player;   a pitch count display for displaying the pitch count of the number of pitches thrown by the player; and   a pitch plus button that functions to trigger the transmission of the signal, and also to increase the pitch count by one.   
     
     
         5 . The wireless play communication system of  claim 4 , wherein the pitch tracking means includes a computer processor and a computer memory of the coach communication device.
