This indoor batting cage in Acworth, GA started as one dad's project to make his son a better ballplayer, and it turned into a two-in-one hitting-and-pitching space that other local families now get to use. It pairs a Jugs machine with a real mound and a 9-hole command target, all under one roof.

The cage

The covered, indoor cage measures 30 feet long, 10 wide, and 10 tall, built around a Jugs pitching machine that throws multiple pitch types for varied timing work. On the pitching side there's a mound with a 9-hole command target set 50 feet away, plus a bullpen mound, an arm stretcher, a tee, and a hit net in the back room. It includes baseballs and an L-screen, with lighting, seating, and parking on site. Sessions run $30 an hour, and a player can move from hitting to pitching without leaving the building.

Who it's for

With room for up to five guests, a mound, and a 9-hole target, this cage genuinely serves both hitters and pitchers. It's a strong fit for individual sessions, small groups, and travel-ball players who want to split time between machine hitting and command work, exactly the kind of two-way training a developing player needs.

The host

Andrew coaches his son's 11U travel team. "We created this cage for my son to improve his hitting and pitching," he says, and the mound, the 9-hole, and the Jugs machine are all there for exactly that. It's a build that came from a parent's investment in his kid's game, now open to other families chasing the same goal.

Good to know

Being indoor and covered, this cage works year-round no matter the weather. House rules are standard: no cleats, no seeds or gum, no food, no pets. The 9-hole target and arm stretcher make it a real pitching space, not just a hitting cage, a rare combination for a private setup.
