If you are looking for the way to practicing your batting skills or provide the equipment necessary to develop athletes at your complex, you likely have looked at outdoor batting cages. With the various types, brands and materials available, it can be overwhelming to find the perfect one that meets your needs. Consider these 3 factors before purchasing to ensure a great experience:
Intended Use
Little league athletes and professional athletes have very different needs when it comes to practice equipment. Depending on how the batting cage will be used, there are many different options available to ensure the best practice experience possible. Getting a cage that doesn’t meet your requirements can lead to a poor experience and quick degradation of the netting.
Space Available
Before looking at outdoor batting cages, it is important to determine how much space you can allot for the addition of one. If standard batting cage sizes are too big, you may still be able to invest in a custom batting cage. However, it is important to note that custom batting cages will often cost more than a standard batting cage because of the material costs and work required to complete the project.
Net Type
While an indoor batting cage may be protected from the elements, outdoor battings cages usually aren't as fortunate. To ensure the best durability possible, it is important to opt for a heavier net that has been UV treated and weatherized. This will ensure that it remains durable in extreme temperatures and weather events.
