About Us

 

Background / Company Info

We are a family owned & operated small business, with a strong passion for sports. We currently operate a fabrication shop outside of Cleveland, and our sales office & headquarters are just outside of Omaha, Nebraska.

Our deep roots in the sports world takes us back over 30 years, in the form of playing & coaching throughout Omaha. In 2001 our official business, College Sports, Inc. (CSI) was founded, and BattingNets.com hit the web shortly thereafter. A few years later we founded Practice Sports, Inc. (PSI) , to more accurately represent the BattingNets.com business model, focusing on sports equipment. CSI is still in operation, and currently manages numerous College Sports fan based websites, selling apparel & tickets.

PSI currently operates a variety of online stores, to offer specialized yet streamlined shopping:

  • PracticeSports.com -- PSI's central store
  • BattingNets.com -- PSI's Sports Netting Division (new store coming soon)
  • Turf360.com -- PSI's Artificial Turf Division
  • InstallCrew.com -- PSI's Installation Services Division
  • FlexCages.com -- PSI's Batting Cage Brand

During the past decade we have outfitted hundreds of pro training facilities, high schools, colleges, major universities, pro teams, pro players, actors, musicians, production studios, & backyards. We have earned a rock-solid reputation in the business as a dependable source for high-quality cutting-edge products, at a competitive price. Our client list & testimonials will speak for themselves, but feel free to Contact Us anytime.

We specialize in designing high quality batting cage systems for a variety of sports, including: baseball, softball, golf, hockey & many more. Some of our customers include individual households, schools, & training facilities. We work closely with each organization to design a system compatible with their facility - opposed to sending a generic system, and letting our customers worry about on-site fabrication, when they need to focus on the organizational aspect of a new facility.

We operate a fabrication shop in Ohio, where we design all of our own Batting Cage Systems - from In-Ground / Free-Standing / Retractable / Electric Frames, to Cable Suspension Systems -- we can design the perfect system for your situation.

Installation & Inspection:

We also offer nationwide Installation & Inspection services, to put a professional touch on your personal or commercial batting cage system - or if your equipment is in need of servicing, or just a solid independent inspection to give you peace of mind - our full-service shop does it all!

Our customers include high-schools, colleges, families, teams, individuals, pro teams, commercial training facilities, professional associations, government agencies, and many more.
