In Moreno Valley there's a backyard batting cage in Moreno Valley, CA a mom built for her daughters, a genuinely softball-ready setup Nikki put together so her girls could sharpen their game at home, now open to other families.
The cage
This is a Batco outdoor cage, 36 feet long, 14 feet wide, and 15 feet tall, tall enough for comfortable full swings. It's properly softball-tuned rather than a baseball cage with a softball machine bolted on: a batter's box mat, a hitting tee, an Atec pro pitcher's practice backstop, a combo screen for protection, and a Jugs super softball machine fed with a bucket of dimpled softballs. On-site parking makes drop-off and pickup easy. Sessions are $35/hour.
Who it's for
It's built for softball hitters and small family sessions of up to 5, ideal for a player and a parent working through machine reps and tee work together. The dedicated fastpitch machine, softball-specific gear, and dimpled balls set it apart from all-baseball cages and make it a real find for softball families in the area.
The host
Nikki has three daughters, "2 of them live for softball," and she says it directly: "I put together this cage for them to be able to practice their skills and improve their game." It's a mom-built cage with real heart behind it (every piece of equipment chosen for her own kids' development) and now she opens it up so other families can chase the same improvement.
Good to know
It's a private outdoor softball cage with parking on site. House rules keep it tidy and reserved for individual and family use (no full team practices): turf-friendly shoes only (no cleats), no pets, food, seeds, or gum, and no smoking, alcohol, or glass. Show up ready to hit, the gear is all there.
