An athletic training apparatus for improving the stick and ball handling ability of an athlete and particularly an ice hockey player. The athletic training apparatus generally includes a body member having an upper surface, a flat bottom surface, and a generally circular side wall, wherein the body member is comprised of a cylindrical shape and at least one elongated attachment member extending below the bottom surface of the body member to affix the body member to an athletic training surface, such as a sheet of ice for ice hockey training. Pads may also be secured to the attachment member below the bottom surface of the body member for providing a gripping structure to secure the body member to a surface, such as a roller hockey playing surface. Alternate uses may be employed, such as use upon a court to improve ball handling skills and various other playing surfaces.
