I want to share this with you as it is the result of one man's effort. Howard set out to give the kids of Taft one of the best hitting facilities that any city had, and he succeeded. With BATCO's help with built cages, put in turf, stance mats, iron Mike hitting machines, and chain-link the all set of cages and then put them under the lights. It took Howard over two years to get all the help, money and the okays, but I want to tell you this is the best facility any kids had because one man's total effort.  If you happen to play against Taft CA, or ever by their you need to see this facility at the baseball park.

"How Has BATCO been important to your successes since starting your Baseball and/or Fast pitch Training Facility?"

BATCO was a tremendous asset from the very beginning as we began to discuss our ideas with them and the way Coach Arnald treated us as part of the family all the way to opening day. He was very helpful in bouncing ideas off of him and him giving us great advice as well. The equipment we purchased through BATCO was top of the line and we have had no complaints, it was delivered on time and went beyond our expectations. Our clients have been thrilled with our facility and we have grown at an incredible speed to the point of us already discussing expanding our facility within the next three months and opening three more facilities within the next two years, we continue to receive praise for our facilities equipment and design.  BATCO

In Flagstaff Arizona, there is one of the finest facilities around. Jim and his staff taken converted indoor tennis courts, and converted into a facility that now has seven lanes for hitting with iron Mike pitching machines, and two lanes for live pitching/hitting.  The lanes are set up for the baseball player, softball player.  One more thing about the lanes they are 16 foot high which is about 4 foot above the normal because Jim wanted to be able to cater to the slow pitch player, which he has done admirably.

This has to be one of the biggest and best that BATCO never been part of, furnishing all the iron Mike's, netting, pitching mounds, and turf products.  We are extremely proud of this facility is now been open about three years.  

Jim and his staff host many events there, offer instruction, offer team rentals for year-round training, and certainly individual player development from the young the  to the most proficient.  All located under one of the biggest plastic free span buildings will ever have the privilege to be in.   

Please visit Jim, Beth entire staff at the Flagstaff Athletic Club, and I should add here that this is a complete facility from swimming, basketball, personal training, exercise rooms to the ultimate.

This training facility has 6 lanes, for hitting drills and teaching. Along with live throwing for batting practice. 

A unique feature of this facility are dirt mounds used in pitching drills and learning to throw from the mound. 

Josh/Dr. K's is especially proud of the orange color scheme on the protective screens to honor the Tennessee colors. I believe you'll find all the equipment and instructional expertise at the facility. Drop in  and visit.
