A soccer ball projecting apparatus comprising a horizontal base frame having wheels affixed thereto for movement of the apparatus about a soccer field, and a sub-frame which is movably mounted on the base frame. The sub-frame supports a mechanism for projecting a soccer ball, and a soccer ball support cup assembly for supporting a soccer ball in operational association with the mechanism for projecting a soccer ball. The apparatus further comprises a first chain and sprocket drive and motor for rotating the sub-frame within a horizontal plane above the base frame. The ball projecting mechanism is thereby rotatable from side to side for projecting soccer balls to soccer players on both sides of a soccer field without displacing the apparatus in the field. Other aspects of the present invention comprises the ability to adjust the striking path of the striking leg member for lobbing a ball without losing impact force on the ball, and the provision of a chain and sprocket drive for cocking a pair of spring assembly connected to the leg member, with of a detection device and a microprocessor for monitoring; the number of teeth on the driven sprocket when the springs are being cocked, whereby the striking power of the leg member is adjustable by increments which are inversely proportional to the number of teeth on the driven sprocket.
