Introducing the Swax Training Baseball with a fun new stars and stripes pappter. This revolutionary traing ball with a new and fun pattern helps to safely learn the fundamentals of baseball at the earliest of ages. It is the official size and weight of a real baseball but is much softer for safely learning the game. This Swax Training Baseball can be used in every aspect of your training regimen at any age. The patented design allows this ball to resemble the same weight and feel of a real baseball when learning to play catch. The tough and durable Swax Training baseball will last through the ball seasons as kids develop their skills and can also be used during batting practice. The official weight and size help younger kids get a more realistic feel when their bat hits the ball compared to a lighter weighing ball. The softer Swax Training Baseball can be used at an indoor facility or where training space is restricted. Due to its limited flight it travels about 50% as far as a real baseball when hit and has less bounce and roll. One of the main reason's kids learning to play baseball have a hard time catching is due to fear of getting hit by a hard ball. Take that fear away from your child with the Swax Training Baseball and get their training started off on the right foot. Ideal for players 12 and under.
