A Look At Indoor Batting Cages

Batting cages play a central role in baseball and softball training. They are enclosures that help control the flight of baseballs and softballs during practice, and can be used to help improve a batter’s speed and accuracy.

When shopping for batting cages, many find indoor batting cages to be a convenient and sensible choice. Indoor batting cages are often used in climates where season weather does not permit outside activity. They can be beneficial in keeping batting practice on schedule even with snow on the ground or when there are rainy conditions. Because gripping a bat with cold fingers can hinder batting technique, weather can be an important factor when choosing to use or buy an indoor batting cage.

Certain materials are used more often for indoor batting cages. For example, nylon netting is a popular choice for indoor batting cages. Because the weather is not a concern when practicing in a covered indoor area, the netting does not need to be as strong as when used outdoors. The cage should still be durable, however. In addition, indoor conditions indoors, such as humidity and


heat, should be taken into consideration when choosing indoor batting cages.

Aside from the actual netting material, the construction of a net can help determine how long it will last. Before purchasing a batting cage, it is important to consider the size of the twine used, as well as the way the netting is manufactured. Weaves are machine made, and some offer more sturdiness than others. When choosing a batting cage for indoor use, weigh all of the options to decide which cage will best suit the needs of the athletes.
