For Little League leadership & boards
Turn Your Batting Cage Into a Year-Round Resource for Your League
Give families a place to train on their schedule — with reserved paid time, money back to the league, and full calendar control. We take $0 of your cage rate.
Valuable cages, locked most of the week
Many leagues own a batting cage that sits idle for much of the week — while families nearby want more places to train and are already used to a shared code on the gate.
Opening that time in a controlled way means more reps for players, convenience for families who know their slot is reserved, and revenue that funds the program — without turning volunteer dads into a booking desk.
How it works
Three steps to put your cage to work — without giving up control.
- 1
List your league cage
A designated board member (usually the president or VP of ops) creates the CageList account and lists the cage — location, rules, pricing, and who can book.
- 2
Control access and scheduling
Block practices, games, tournaments, and maintenance. Start with league families only; open to the wider community later if your board wants.
- 3
Families book; the league gets paid
Approved families reserve a real time slot online, pay when they book, and know the cage is theirs for that window. Payouts go to your league bank account.
What your league gets
More reps, on their schedule
Families train when it works for them — and a paid booking means that window is actually theirs.
Revenue that funds the program
We take $0 of your league's cage rate. Bookers pay CageList's standard all-in service fee; 100% of your posted rate goes to the league.
Full schedule control
Your league decides exactly when the cage is open and when it's reserved for league activity.
Less volunteer burden
Online booking and payments beat Venmo threads, shared lock codes, and “who has the cage tonight?” group texts.
Digital booking records
Every booking is recorded, so you have a clear log of who used the cage and when — better than a padlock alone.
Built for baseball and softball
CageList is designed specifically around cages and the leagues that run them.
Built around your board's real concerns
Trust and control come first. Here's how we think about the questions boards ask.
Safety and liability
CageList does not provide insurance or replace your existing coverage. Confirm with your carrier that paid / off-hours use fits your policy before going live. We give you digital booking records, posted rules, and controlled access windows.
A lock isn't enough
A code on the cage handles access. CageList handles reserved time, payments to the league, refunds, and a record of who was booked — so “local dads know the code” doesn't become the whole system.
Who runs the account
One designated admin owns the CageList login (typically the president or ops lead). Payouts still connect to the league bank account — not a volunteer's personal account.
Scheduling
Your league controls all available days and times. Block recurring practices, games, tournaments, camps, and maintenance so league activity always comes first.
Volunteer burden
Online booking and payments mean minimal ongoing management — far lighter than coordinating manual rentals — while keeping decisions in your league's hands.
Facility rules
Your league sets the rules: age requirements, equipment, supervision, footwear, cleanup, and any use restrictions you want enforced.
We take $0 of your league's cage rate
For verified Little League partners, 100% of your posted hourly rate funds your program — baseballs, scholarships, uniforms, field work. Bookers pay CageList's standard all-in service fee; you keep the full cage rate.
Actual booking volume depends on your pricing, availability, and local demand. Results vary by league.

Frequently asked questions
Can we restrict bookings to only our league families?
Yes — and that's the recommended start. Limit bookings to league families or approved users first, then open more widely only if your board decides to.
Can we block practices, games, and tournaments?
Yes. You control the calendar and can block recurring practices, games, tournaments, camps, and maintenance windows so league activity always takes priority.
Who sets the price?
Your league does. You set the hourly rate and any booking rules, and you can adjust them over time.
Do you take a cut of the league's cage revenue?
No. For verified Little League partners, CageList takes $0 of your posted cage rate — 100% goes to your program. Bookers still pay CageList's standard all-in service fee (itemized at checkout).
How does the league get paid?
Connect your league's bank account via Stripe (not a volunteer's personal account). Families pay online when they book; payouts go to the league.
Who manages the CageList account?
One designated board member — usually the president or VP of operations. They own the login and calendar; money still flows to the league bank account.
Why not just put a lock on it?
A lock is great for access. CageList adds reserved paid time, automatic payments to the league, and a booking record of who was there when — so convenience for families and accountability for the board.
Can we pause or remove the listing?
Yes. You can pause bookings or remove your listing at any time — for the offseason, maintenance, or any other reason.
Do we need to talk to our insurance provider?
Yes — we recommend it. Confirm how opening your cage to approved paid bookings fits your existing policy before going live. Every league's situation is different.
Does CageList provide insurance?
No. CageList does not provide insurance and does not replace your league's existing coverage. We provide booking, payments, scheduling control, and digital records.
Ready when your board is
List your league cage, connect the league bank account, and open booking to your families. We'll verify the partnership and waive host commission so you keep 100% of your rate.
Prefer a walkthrough?
Optional — if your board wants a 20-minute setup call before listing, tell us about your league and we'll be in touch.
