BEARCAT TURF & OUTDOORS

For academies, training centers & sports complexes

Baseball facility construction in DFW, end to end.

Batting cage installation, netting, indoor hitting turf, outdoor field turf, and full baseball and softball field builds. One crew for the whole facility, from a shell or a slab to opening day — based in Aledo and building across the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex. Cimarron authorized dealer, HUB Certified, fully insured.

Outside driving range? We do virtual consults over video to talk budget and planning before anyone gets in a truck.

  • Softball programs & fastpitch training facilities
  • Travel-ball and club organizations
  • Batting cage & entertainment businesses
  • Schools, ISDs, and college programs
  • Parks departments & municipal complexes

  • Certified VersaCourt dealer
  • Concrete, asphalt, or compacted-stone base, same crew as the field build
  • Limited Lifetime Warranty on every tile system
VersaCourt Sport Courts →

Concrete coatings & epoxy floors

$5.25–$14 / sq ft installed ($2,500 project minimum)

  • Priced after a site moisture check, not over the phone
Concrete Coatings →

Electrical: fans, lighting & HitTrax

Quoted on scope, licensed electrician coordinated by our crew

Dedicated circuits and data drops for the equipment that makes a facility run: overhead cage fans, HitTrax or Trackman hitting bays, and high-bay LED lighting. We bring in a licensed electrician and schedule the rough-in around the frame and net install instead of leaving it as a fourth vendor you have to coordinate.

  • Dedicated circuits for overhead HVLS or cage-mounted fans
  • Power and data drops for HitTrax, Trackman, or similar hitting simulators
  • High-bay LED lighting runs coordinated with the frame and net timeline

Who we work with

Every piece of the facility, on one bill.

We are an authorized dealer for Cimarron, Sports Attack, and Portolite, and we can broker an introduction to HitTrax. We bring these brands, which operators already trust for cages, machines, tracking, and mounds, into a single Bearcat contract. One quote, one payment schedule, one crew scheduling every delivery and install around your buildout.

Cage frames, nets & accessories

Cimarron Sports

Commercial-grade galvanized and powder-coated cage frames, nets, and hardware. We are an authorized Cimarron dealer, so the frame and net package is quoted and installed by our own crew.

Pitching machines & feeders

Hack Attack by Sports Attack

We are an authorized Sports Attack dealer for Hack Attack, iHack Attack, and Elite eHack Attack machines plus feeders, matched to your net gauge and cage layout and set up on site. Machine warranty is handled directly by Sports Attack.

Hitting data & simulation

HitTrax

Ball-flight tracking and game-style simulation for the bays that need to earn their keep. We love their stuff and can broker an introduction. We plan the mounting, power, and data drops with the electrician so the system goes in with the cage, not after it.

Sports Attack authorized dealer

Spec the machines with the build.

Bearcat is an authorized Sports Attack dealer. Machines, feeders, and TranzHit stations go on the same proposal as the tunnels, turf, and netting, so the facility opens with every lane ready to run.

Price is MSRP. Machines ship direct from Sports Attack to your door; freight is listed with each machine from the Sports Attack 2026 rate sheet (continental US). Items without a listed rate are quoted. Warranty through Sports Attack. See every Sports Attack machine.

Where we build — 8 states

Indoor facility builds, from Fort Worth across the South Central US.

We're Aledo-based, in the Fort Worth / DFW area, and that's where most of our day-to-day work happens. For full shell-up facility construction — empty buildings converted into baseball, softball, cricket, multi-sport, or training facilities — we travel across Texas, Oklahoma, Louisiana, Arkansas, Kansas, New Mexico, Nebraska & Georgia. Pick a state for what we build there, how public buyers procure it, and how a project there actually works.

Don’t see your city or town? Ask anyway — tell us where the building is and we’ll scope the drive during the consult. See every state we build in →

Outside DFW and want to talk budget and planning before committing to a site visit? We do virtual consults over video for exactly that — scope, rough numbers, and next steps, no drive required yet.

Facility build questions

Do you build complete indoor baseball training facilities? +

Yes. We build out full facilities from a shell or an existing building: commercial cage systems and netting, indoor hitting turf, mounds and plate inlays, partition and curtain nets, and pitching-machine integration. The cages, the turf, and the install crew are all in-house, so one team coordinates the whole buildout.

How much does batting cage installation cost for a facility? +

Commercial batting cage installation starts around $4,000 for a single tunnel and runs $8,000 to $40,000+ for multi-cage facility builds, depending on frame type, net gauge (#45, #60, or #84), station count, and whether the turf floor is included. Indoor hitting turf adds roughly $6 to $12 per square foot installed. We quote every facility line by line after a site visit or a virtual consult.

Do you build softball and fastpitch facilities, not just baseball? +

Yes. The same cage, netting, and turf systems work for softball and fastpitch programs, with layouts sized for softball pitching distances and mat or turf specs to match. We also build full softball fields, from rec diamonds to turfed infields. See our softball page for field-level pricing.

Can you convert a warehouse into an indoor baseball or softball training facility? +

Yes. Most indoor builds are conversions of an existing warehouse or shell building: cable-hung cage netting sized to the clear height, turf-over-pad on the existing slab, partition curtains, lighting, and power for fans and machines. We check slab condition, ceiling height, and column spacing first, then lay out the cages so the building earns its keep. See our warehouse conversion overview for typical layouts.

Is a batting cage facility a good business, and what does it take to open one? +

Cage facilities earn from rentals, memberships, lessons, and camps, so the build has to hold up to daily use and keep operating costs low. Plan for heavier #60 nets where machines run all day, panel-replaceable turf at the plate, and a layout that can add stations later. We can walk through a rough build budget and station count with you before you sign a lease.

How much does it cost to build a baseball training facility? +

It depends on size and scope. As indicative ranges: commercial cage systems run from $4,000 for a single tunnel up to $8,000 to $40,000+ for multi-cage facility builds; indoor hitting turf runs roughly $6 to $12 per square foot installed; outdoor practice and field turf runs roughly $8 to $14 per square foot all-in; and full field builds range from about $40,000 for a rec field up to $470,000 to $1.84M for a full artificial-turf field in DFW. Every facility is quoted on a site and needs visit.

Do you install indoor hitting turf over existing concrete? +

Yes. Most indoor and warehouse installs are turf-over-pad on the existing slab. We assess slab condition first, since older industrial floors sometimes need grinding or patching before anchors and turf hold long-term. Where the floor is solid, we lay pad and turf directly over it.

Do you work as a subcontractor with our general contractor? +

Yes. We regularly work as a subcontractor to GCs and alongside architects on commercial facility builds. We provide a W-9, a certificate of insurance naming the GC or owner as additional insured, and can match a payment-application structure to AIA G702 format.

What net gauge do commercial facilities need? +

Use intensity drives it. #45 commercial twisted poly is the minimum for a training facility. Step up to #60 if JUGS-speed machine work is a daily routine, and #84 if college or pro hitters train in the cage. Partition nets are typically #36 or #42 on track-mounted carriers.

Do you serve facilities outside Fort Worth? +

Yes. We are Aledo-based and cover the full Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex for facility work, and we travel statewide across Texas for larger field and facility builds — including Midland, Odessa, Abilene, Wichita Falls, Denton, Plano, Frisco, Prosper, McKinney, Allen, Waco, Austin, San Antonio, Tyler, Athens, Nacogdoches, Longview, Texarkana, Lubbock, Amarillo, and El Paso. For full facility construction we also travel into Oklahoma (Oklahoma City, Tulsa, Norman, Edmond, Lawton), Arkansas (Fort Smith, Fayetteville, Springdale, Rogers), and Louisiana (Shreveport, Bossier City, Monroe). Tell us where the building or site is and we will confirm during the consult.

Can we start with a virtual consult instead of an in-person visit? +

Yes. For facilities outside DFW — especially in Oklahoma and the other states on our Where We Build page — we regularly start with a video call to walk through the space, use case, rough budget, and timeline before committing to a site visit. It is a good way to get real planning numbers early, and it costs nothing to find out if the project is a fit. We will still want a walk-through or a detailed site survey before a fixed quote, but the virtual consult gets the budgeting conversation moving right away.

Do you install floor coatings or epoxy floors in training facilities? +

Yes, through our partner Professional Garage Concepts. Full-broadcast flake, solid-color, and metallic epoxy systems start at $5.25 to $14 per square foot depending on the system, with a $2,500 project minimum. You can coat the whole slab before turf goes down, or just the walkway and viewing area around the cage. See our concrete coatings page for the full pricing and system breakdown.

Can you wire a facility for overhead fans or HitTrax? +

Yes. We coordinate a licensed electrician for the circuits and data drops a modern facility needs: dedicated power for overhead HVLS or cage-mounted fans, power and data runs for HitTrax, Trackman, or similar hitting and pitching simulators, and high-bay LED lighting. That work is scheduled around the frame and net install instead of being bolted on after the fact.

Can we get the cages, machines, mounds, turf, and installation on one bill? +

Yes. We are an authorized dealer for Cimarron Sports (cage frames and nets), Hack Attack by Sports Attack (pitching machines and feeders), and Portolite (pitching mounds). We install Controlled Products Artificial Turf and TurfHub turf, and we can broker an introduction to HitTrax (hitting data and simulation), which we love and plan the power and data for. We bring the dealer lines in under one Bearcat contract and one invoice alongside the turf, netting, welding, electrical, and epoxy flooring work. We can also package sound, security, fencing, and bar tops, which we coordinate through trade partners. One quote, one payment schedule, one crew coordinating delivery and install, instead of a stack of vendors and billing relationships. Manufacturer warranties on each product stay with the manufacturer.
