Junior softball pitching machines

Sports Attack Junior Hack Attack Softball Pitching Machine

The Sports Attack Junior Hack Attack Softball Pitching Machine is a three-wheel softball pitching machine that Sports Attack builds for developing young players. A quick turn of the dials throws fastballs 43 feet at 60+ MPH, along with risers, drops, right- and left-handed curves, screwballs and knuckleball changeups. Each of its three concave 13 in. throwing wheels runs on its own variable speed motor. The exclusive three-wheel vision lets the hitter see the ball clearly, the way it comes off a live pitcher. At 82 lbs it fits into any compact car, including a Mini Cooper.

One person walks it around the field, and it breaks down for the trip home. It is the only pitching machine that converts quickly to throw a special 7.5 in. diameter vision training ball, and it runs on 110V, with a 220/240V version available.

Controls

How it works

Vision through the release
The ball stays in view through the feeding motion, the acceleration and the release. The hitter sees when to stride and sees the angle of release, which puts timing and vision at the center of the design.
Complete ball vision
Inside/outside adjustment
A handle shifts ball location at the plate. The first pitch is centered with the machine standing where it is, and the operator moves the pitch inside or outside with a turn.
Location without moving the machine
Vision training ball conversion
The Junior Hack Attack converts quickly to throw a special 7.5 in. diameter vision training ball, a smaller size that forces centering and tracking while proper hitting mechanics are held. The conversion fits a matching ball chute and slides the top wheels closer, and the ball is fed by hand.
Fed by hand
Concave wheels that hold up in heat
The 13 in. concave wheels do not melt in direct summer heat, and Sports Attack has never replaced a wheel from wear or heat exposure.

How to use it

Sports Attack Junior Hack Attack Softball, vision and timing
Vision & Timing

Why a young hitter sees more off three wheels

The three-wheel head holds the ball in the open through the feed, the acceleration and the release, and the stride cue and the release angle both arrive on time. In developing hitters, especially at younger ages, timing and vision come first.

  • Risers, drops and knuckleball changeups on the dials
  • Right- and left-handed curves and screwballs
  • Underhanded motion with complete ball vision
Three-wheel design Underhanded motion
Sports Attack Junior Hack Attack Softball, location and fungo work
Location & Fungo

Move the pitch without moving the machine

The inside/outside handle changes ball location at the plate and centers the first pitch with the back leg left alone. Pair it with the elevation handle and any area of the strike zone is reachable between pitches. Turn the head and the same machine hits fungo.

  • Inside/outside handle for minute location change
  • Elevation handle raises or lowers the pitch
  • Head pivots for 175 ft fly balls, line drives and grounders
  • Catcher's pop-ups with reverse spin and towering infield pop-ups

Questions

Frequently asked questions

Sports Attack builds it to develop serious young players: youth league, backyard, machine-pitch games, travel teams and drills at every level including high school and college. The controls are kept to dials and handles so an operator can run a session without stopping to reset the throwing head.
Fastballs 43 feet at 60+ MPH, from a 23 in. ball release point. Speed comes off the wheel speed dials for a session that starts slow and climbs, and recovery between pitches is 5 seconds, held by the three-wheel drive.
A smaller ball the Junior Hack Attack converts to throw quickly. Its 7.5 in. diameter forces centering and tracking while proper hitting mechanics are held. The conversion fits its own ball chute and slides the top wheels closer, and the ball is fed by hand and sold separately.
With two handles. The inside/outside adjustment makes an instant, minute change in ball location at the plate and centers the first pitch with the machine standing still, so there is no kicking of the back leg. The elevation adjustment handle raises or lowers the pitch, and together they reach any area of the strike zone between pitches.
Yes. Turned in any direction, the head handles fungo: fly balls to 175 ft, slicing line drives, catcher's pop-ups with reverse spin, towering infield pop-ups and grounders.
Yes. At 82 lbs and 23.5 x 27.5 x 32 in. (W x D x H), it fits into any compact car, including a Mini Cooper, as well as any SUV or full size car, and it passes through a standard doorway. Moving it means tilting it, un-socketing the legs and rolling it on the two heavy-duty transporting wheels, while front wheel guards keep the throwing wheels off the dirt.
12 in. regulation leather softballs, dimpled practice balls, Wiffle balls and all softer practice balls, with 11 in. balls at much reduced speed and distance. Synthetic leather balls are not suitable: they wear quickly and leave a residue on the throwing wheels.
The Junior Hack Attack runs on 110V, and a 220/240V version is available. On 110V it plugs into a grounded 115 V single phase outlet, takes a #14/3 extension cord up to 200 ft, and runs from a generator of 1000 W or more.
The machine and its legs, with no assembly needed: the Junior Hack Attack arrives fully assembled and ready for immediate use. Buy a ball feeder and a protective screen separately; the machine works with the Solo Feeder (11 balls) or the Team Feeder (75 balls).
Sports Attack backs the machine with a two-year warranty for residential and institutional use and one year for commercial use, covering materials, workmanship and the wear parts: throwing wheels, controllers and motors. Coverage runs from the date of original purchase, based on the serial number and date codes on the unit.
