D-BAT Austin

Have been taking my daughter(6 year old) there for the last 4/5 months for lessons and the improvement she’s made is phenomenal for her age. Her coach(Coach Tucker) has been patient and has been able to communicate to her the lesson to where she understands and is able to execute it. The whole staff there is chill and I haven’t had a problem that they couldn’t fix. I recommend this place to all my friends to take their kids there or to pop in for the batting cages.

D-BAT in Austin is a really good time for hitting some softballs!! Place is clean, neat, and a ton of fun! Enjoy!! 🥎

WOW! this is a very organized, clean, well-managed place to take your kids or even yourself for some good catching/batting/pitching practice. The platinum membership pays for itself if you plan to schedule lessons with coaches and provided unlimited family fun in the cages. All of the staff and coaches are super friendly and we have been very impressed with Aaron Wells. He is great with kids, very encouraging, and knowledgeable.

we love this place! It's always clean and they have equipment there that you can use if you don't have your own with you. If you are looking for lessons they have all kinds, from hitting to pitching and they even have clinics during the summer and spring break for kids.

D-Bat runs summer camps and we took advantage of that a couple of times to give the grandsons something to do when they stayed with us during the summer. This summer has been pretty different. The kids are getting older and are very vocal about what they prefer to do and camp is not high on their list. Not just D-Bat camp but camp in general. I’ve been planning an activity every day for my 10-year-old grandson who was with us this week and booked some private lessons with Aaron at D-Bat that were scheduled yesterday. The boys both play in Baseball Leagues and their parents have utilized this facility frequently so they hold a platinum membership there. One of the big perks is you can go and utilize the batting cages anytime you choose and it has already been covered in your membership. For other activities there are discounts available usually 20 to 30% off regular price depending on your membership. This was a huge savings for us when we booked 4 half hour sessions. It happened that the time available was back to back so grandson had one hour of increasing his skills in batting and also an hour pitching and catching. Both of our youngest grandson’s really enjoy baseball as do their parents and grandparents. We rarely miss a game. Anyway I have to say I could not of been more impressed with Aaron and his style of educating, showing and then having the child execute form, stance and swing and stressing the areas where improvement is needed. He is consistent in his instructions and uses a normal level voice in what can be a noisy environment. This really encourages the kids to listen. Aaron is up on the info of some star baseball players that everyone is aware of, and shares with the kids little tidbits of things that they have done to improve their game and become experts at what they do. He stressed that if you do something over and over the same way, you can become an expert at it too. I was a little nervous about having two hours back to back in terms of attention span but grandson did an excellent job paying attention, listened, and responded and had some great success hitting under Aaron’s guidance. From what I understand all the instructors have very good skills but we would highly recommend Aaron based on our experiences with him-both recent and in the past. He is a high-quality instructor! The facility itself is very nice. They are set up to do private lessons as well as have areas where a congregate of kids can gather and be instructed in playing games and such, during the camps and other group activities. They hold in the camps in summer and on school holidays. They use really good equipment to protect themselves and to make sure that the kids don’t get injured either during batting and/or pitching and/or playing a mock game. The entryway has some very nice baseball related merch for sale and a desk where you check in and pay for the services you have chosen. There are areas around the cages where they have benches and bleachers for any observers. They have a good amount of hours daily so that you can come at your convenience if you just want to practice batting in the batting cages or if you want to schedule a private lesson with one of the instructors. I found their website very helpful also, and I actually booked the activities we chose, through the website and received a confirmation text. If you have a Baseball or Softball player in your life, drop in and check out the facility. We don’t think you will be disappointed!
