Hit Trainers

The SKLZ Hit-A-Way is a swing trainer that attaches to a pole or post. The ball is held on a cord, so after each hit it wraps around and comes back to the hitting zone, letting you take swing after swing without chasing balls. It comes in Baseball, Softball and Jr. versions, plus the Hit-A-Way PTS. Shop all hit trainers.

The SKLZ Hurricane is a freestanding swing trainer with a ball on a rotating arm. When you hit the ball, it spins around and comes back to the hitting zone, so you can work on bat speed and contact without a partner or a net. It's available as the Hurricane Category 4 and the Hurricane Select 2.0. Find both in our hit trainers.

The SKLZ Hit-A-Way Jr. is made for younger hitters and gives them lots of swings in a short time. A batting tee is also a must for building a good swing early, and soft toss machines like the SKLZ Catapult keep practice fun. For safety, start with soft or lightweight balls from our training balls.

The SKLZ Zip-N-Hit is a hitting trainer where the ball travels along a cord toward the hitter, simulating a pitch. It helps players work on timing and tracking the ball into the hitting zone, and it can be used with a partner in a small space. See it with our other hit trainers.

The SKLZ Hitter's Handle, available in 8 oz and 12 oz, is used for hitting drills that build hand strength and a quick, compact swing. The Rawlings Resistance Band Baseball adds resistance to swing work, and the SKLZ Target Swing Trainer helps players groove a consistent swing path. For more options, see our training bats and training equipment.

Some, yes. Trainers that keep the ball attached, like the SKLZ Hit-A-Way and Hurricane, return the ball to you, so no net is needed, as long as you have enough room to swing safely. Soft toss machines and tees with loose balls should be used with a hitting net from our nets and screens. Always check that nobody is standing near the swing area. Shop all hit trainers.
