GoSports Weighted Training Balls - Choose Baseball or Softball - Hitting & Pitching Training for All Skill Levels - Improve Power and Mechanics

Weighted training balls are a fantastic tool for improving batting skills, especially for younger players learning to build strength and control. We were introduced to these by my son’s coach, who recommended them to help refine his swing. After trying them ourselves, we found they’re incredibly effective, and they’ve made backyard batting practice not only easy but also fun and highly productive.One of the biggest advantages of these weighted balls is that they don’t require as much space as regular baseballs. You can set up batting practice in smaller areas without worrying about balls flying too far or too fast, making it ideal for backyard or even park practice sessions. Because they’re heavier, they don’t travel as far when hit, so there’s less chasing down balls and more focus on swinging.These balls work by building up muscle memory and strength, helping the batter stay grounded and follow through with more power. My son’s batting accuracy and swing speed have both noticeably improved since we started using them. They really encourage batters to make solid contact, and the feedback is immediate: if the swing isn’t strong or accurate enough, the ball won’t go far, which is a great way for kids to self-correct.The durability of the balls is another highlight—they can take a lot of hits without cracking or showing wear. My son and I have gone through many practice sessions, and they still look and perform like new. Overall, these weighted training balls have been a great addition to our practice gear, helping my son build confidence and consistency. I’d recommend them for any parent or coach looking to up their player's batting game.

I’ve been incredibly impressed with my son’s dedication and progress since he started practicing with heavy balls. It’s made a noticeable difference in his swing power, bat control, and overall confidence at the plate. At first, I wasn’t sure how much impact using heavy balls would have, but it’s clear now that they’ve played a major role in building strength and improving his mechanics.Not only has he developed a more explosive swing, but he’s also learning to stay through the ball and generate better contact. What I love most is how focused he’s become—he’s taking each rep seriously and treating practice with the mindset of an athlete who’s committed to growth.Heavy ball training has been a game-changer for him, and I’d highly recommend it to any young player looking to take their hitting to the next level. Great tool, great results!

We started using this when a teammate brought them around for practice one day. My 6 year old loves them! We play catch with them so that it can help increase his arm strength, but also able to be used for batting practice. They are very durable tool. I highly recommend for any age group but would hone in on the use at the lower age levels of baseball.

We love using the weighted balls to practice hitting and throwing when we can’t make it to a cage. My dog actually grabbed one by accident and it didn’t pop! Very pleased with the quality and value. My player is a catcher and we use these daily to help with strengthening catches and throws.

I only hold from giving it 5 stars because there is no case to hold all these. As it is, currently using the box to store 4 of them, while one sits at the house, and one in a bat bag. Good feel, and the right size. These are working great to throw hard at a new glove. Kinda like a beat it with a mallet type break in, but also giving the force and size of the ball to help create the pocket.This is also great for throwing in the back yard, since the weight simulates what it would take to throw a much longer distance. Used as a warm up type weight, since it is easy to hold onto before throwing as well.I think these will last a long time, but am glad there is so many in the box. The cost is about what the 2 or 3 packs were of other brands in local stores.Also works great to dial in bunt practice, since the filling of the ball kind of deadens the hit and allows for better practice on placement, without having to throw so hard and worry about the bounce. Again, great for using in our 30x80' or so backyard practice area without worry about going over a fence.

Fast shipping. Good quality, helps my son with his baseball training. Would buy 100%

I am a huge fan of using weighted balls in different aspects of my training. These are a part of our pregame hitting cycle as well as many drills for both offense and defense.

Great buy. Great for training. Helps swing mechanics with swinging through the ball
