About

Fundamental Purpose

To enhance softball instruction by capturing key performance metrics while further engaging players with immediate and valuable feedback.

Who is it for?

HitTrax was designed specifically for indoor softball academies and offers analytical data modules that allows us to go beyond what was not – is possible now.

How does it work?

HitTrax has developed a groundbreaking training tool, with many features geared to support player development, track performance progress, and to assist coaches in identifying players’ strengths and weakness before stepping onto the field.
HitTrax provides never before captured metrics and statistics for hitters and pitchers in real-time.

Exit Ball Velocity, % LD, Strike Zone Analysis, Late Break of Pitch, etc.

Provides empirical data that objectively confirms performance improvements of key metrics.

Instructors receive quantitative data that identifies strengths and weaknesses immediately following completion of the session and should be used to reinforce instruction.

The strike zone is divided into (13) sections with statistical analysis provided for each section (i.e. exit velo, batting average, hard hit average, % LD, etc.)

Key statistics are broken down by pitch type and/or pitch speeds

Periodic reviews can be held with the player to review results from an individual session or trending reports that outline performance over time. All training statistics are stored in a secure cloud for remote access with the HitTrax StatsCenter App.

Provide player with printed or emailed reports complete with instructional comments.

Helpful Reporting

The Baseline Assessment Report* is an efficient and comprehensive way to assess the current performance level of players

Measuring key metrics over a defined 20 minute program of both Tee and Batting Practice Sessions along with visual observation, the instructor/coach can use the BAR to identify weaknesses and develop a “plan of attack” for future training sessions.

This report is very much a sales tool that can be used to sell, for example, a pack of lessons designed to improve performance against those measured in the initial assessment report.

The Video Capture & Analysis Module (VCAM)** enables full ‘cause and effect’ swing analysis – a true game changer for training.

High-speed video clips of each swing are automatically generated by HitTrax, no need for post- process video editing.

Each swing video is tied to the corresponding HitTrax data to enable powerful analysis and side-by-side comparisons complete with illustration tools and synchronized frame by frame playback.

Data collected during instructional sessions, baseline assessments and video analysis will be used to calculate player rankings amongst our national database and, for those that qualify, placement on our HitTraxStatsCenter leaderboard.

The players will now know where they rank among players their own age.
