Equipment: ****** Please note ****** All of the pitching machines at All American Sports Academy are manually feed machines and need a coach or other "adult" to feed the machines while the players are hitting. We have done this for several reasons; the main reason is that we are providing the best hitting equipment available on the market! In order to take advantage of all of the abilities that the machines have to offer, the coach has ability to make changes to the machine so that it will throw the different pitches that these machines are famous for. Secondly we did this so that the machines can be set at different distances so that no matter what age group you bring you will be able to use the best machines at the proper distances, dial up any pitch at any speed. In other words if you want to take your game to the next level you need to come to All American Sports Academy! Our facility can provide you the best training equipment for your team without the hassles of bringing the gear with you. Below is a list of items available at All American Sports Academy! 1 Senior league Hack attack pitching machine. We have tested this machine with the radar gun and it will throw dimpled balls at 95 and hard balls over 100. But in this business we all know that it's not speed that makes a pitcher successful, it's movement. Having said that we are able to throw virtually any pitch at any speed, any distance. First time in this area you actually will be able to practice against the best pitcher you will face all season. 1 Junior Hack Attack pitching machine. Just like the senior machine, this machine will throw virtually any pitch up to a speed of approx 75 MPH. When is that last time that your team got to practice against a pitcher that can throw 500 curve balls in a row so that you can practice hitting that pitch. Whether your league pitches from 45, 50 or 60 foot we will set the machine for you to practice at the right speed at the right distance. 1 Softball Hack Attack: This machine is unbelievable to hit against. Not only can you adjust the pitching placement of the machines up and down with the twist of a dial, you can set this machine at 35, 40 or 43 and absolutely hit against the best pitcher you have ever seen. Most coaches will agree that hitting against live pitching is best, and we believe that. However, this machine with all of the adjustments, settings that the coach can make while working with the softball players it can present a different pitch each and every time if that is what you want. When is the last time your pitcher was able to throw 500 rise balls so that the team could practice against that pitch. We clocked this machine in the low 80's throwing a dimpled ball. 1 Phantom two wheeled machine: This machine provides the traditional coach a different look and feel. If you are used to a two wheeled machine this is the safest machine on the market. Fully enclosed wheels so that the coach and kids are provided an unusual level of safety and a high quality pitch wrapped up in one machine. This machine will also throw many different pitches and speeds in the 70's. 1 Lite Flite Pitching machine: This lite flite machine is great for the younger kids.
