A Place Where
Athletes Want
To Train.
Baseball and softball training built around great coaching, measurable progress, and an environment athletes love. Founded in Columbus, Indiana by two guys who grew up driving an hour each way just to get reps.
“We wanted to build the place we wished existed when we were growing up here.”
— Hit Factory, Est. 2018 · Columbus, Indiana
Built by Columbus athletes, for Columbus athletes.
Hit Factory started as a passion project for a pair of friends — both growing up in Columbus and driving upwards of an hour both ways for practices and lessons nearly every day. When we both moved back to Columbus after college, we decided to provide a solution for local athletes.
We believe that creating a place to train is more than just providing a facility for teams and athletes to use. It’s about providing a home and community for like-minded people who want to get better while having fun.
Attitude is everything. That’s not just a slogan — it’s the standard we hold ourselves and our athletes to every single day.
Four things we don’t compromise on.
Instructors with decades of baseball experience who coach with intent — not just reps.
Coaches with real playing and coaching experience who understand what it takes to transfer training to the field.
High-quality training facilities athletes actually want to be in — including HitTrax for measurable progress.
A close-knit staff with a common vision — building a place where athletes are known, supported, and pushed to improve.
Inside Hit Factory.
Take a look at what we’ve built — and who we’ve built it for.
The standard we hold ourselves to.
The way you show up matters more than the drill you’re running. We hold athletes — and ourselves — to a standard of effort and attitude that transfers beyond baseball.
Reps without intention are just reps. Every session at Hit Factory is built around measurable goals — we track what matters so athletes can see their own progress.
Columbus athletes shouldn’t have to drive an hour to get quality instruction. We’re here to build something lasting in our own backyard — for the athletes who call this place home.
We don’t stand still. From adding HitTrax to refining our instruction to expanding access through memberships — we’re always looking for ways to make the experience better.
