Players rotate through our cages in small groups: a coached station with HitTrax video feedback, a skill station built around the week’s focus, and live reps that put the work to the test. Most classes end with a short competition so players can see their progress.
Classes start in December. Email info@swingscience.com or call 312-219-9013 with your player’s age and the class you’re interested in, and tell us if you’re bringing a group.
Every cage rental includes our HitTrax games — six ways to turn a session into a competition. Perfect for a night out with friends, a team build, or a birthday party in the cages.
Build two teams and play a full simulated game — HitTrax calls balls and strikes, advances runners, and turns double plays. Play 3–9 innings and see who comes out on top.
Every hit is scored on exit velo, launch angle, distance, and outcome. Chase your personal best and compete with friends for the high score.
Swing for the fences in your favorite MLB stadiums off our pitching simulators. Fun for every skill level and a blast to watch.
Build custom sets of game scenarios and execute what the moment demands — with a “Clutch Factor” metric that scores your ability to do damage.
Work across the field at set intervals, adding hit-type criteria for an extra challenge. A directional game to test you and your friends.
Set goals for reps, target exit velocities, and launch angles while your success rate is tallied automatically.
Six modules today, with more on the way. Games are included with every cage rental — bring a friend and make your next session a competition.
