    A great facility to get some practice in! Someone is trying to talk me into joining a softball…read moreleague, so I felt the need to see if I even remember how to swing a bat anymore. Enter the Greensboro Batting Center, a one stop shop for all things baseball and softball. They have token-based batting cages for all speeds in baseball and softball form, traditional batting cages where someone pitches to you or you use a machine rented by the hour, as well as indoor turf fields for fielding practice and all sorts of uses. There is even a full fitness center and weight room! For me, I just wanted to hit some balls, so I bought some tokens at the front for a very reasonable charge, selected a loaner bat, and took to the cages. I started with slow softball, but worked my way up through the speeds all the way up to average baseball, which I think was about 50-60mph. I did a lot better than I thought, though people standing nearby surely got plenty of breeze. You get 20 pitches per token if I counted correct, and most pitches were properly over the plate. Enough variance that you'll need to adjust, but none ever came close to hitting me. Plenty of fans for cooling off, and vending is available if you need a drink. It looks like some local travel clubs use the facility, and possibly some schools. Anyhow, a really great facility, and i'll be back!

    Awesome family atmosphere. Alan and his crew really care about the individual playersread more

    Coach Karen is probably the best kept secret in fastpitch softball coaching. For my daughters ninth…read morebirthday, this past July, we agreed to find her a pitching coach (a hefty investment for our family). We experimented with several (four!) coaches at local popular training facilities, but no one seemed to be a good fit for our girl. I randomly stumbled upon LKN Pitching while Google searching batting cages, emailed Karen, and got an immediate friendly response. It was love at first lesson. She is a top notch PRO. Easily the best instructor we have ever worked with for any of our kids. Her technical expertise is unparalleled. She is laser focused on where you're athlete is, and knows how to incrementally get them to where they need to be. She doesn't miss a thing! Very in tune with her clients needs. Extremely motivational in her approach to coaching. Uses a variety of coaching tools that provide fun, engaging, useful ways for your child to lean new techniques. Always patient. You will see HUGE progress very quickly with Coach Karen. Frankly, I'm shocked she doesn't have more reviews. I can only assume that she is so coveted by her clients, they probably don't want to share!! I can empathize with that. So very challenging to find good teachers in any arena. When you get one as good as this, you want to hold on tight. Her facility is a perfect, clean, intimate space to get the attention your athlete needs and deserves. No distractions, no attitudes, just solid support. Bonus for homeschoolers, she provides morning and early afternoon lessons!!! Also very hard to come by. I truly can't recommend LKN Pitching enough. The transformation we have seen in our daughter since working with Coach Karen, is remarkable. Did I mention she runs her own travel ball team, LKN Krakens, and coaches varsity softball at SouthLake Christian?? This coach is a powerhouse! Grab her before she's gone.

    My 10 year old daughter had her 1st pitching lesson with Karen and after her 1st lesson she looked…read morelike a natural. Karen is an amazing teacher. Her approach to teaching is great, it's positive and knowledgeable. She takes her time to make sure your daughter learns the proper pitching techniques. My daughter always wanted to pitch but had never the opportunity to learn while playing, until this past season when we met coach Karen. Within couple lessons my daughter was able to start in a game with confidence. My daughter will be taking more lessons this winter to prepare her for spring ball. Thanks Karen
