Ball 2 Barrel Baseball Academy’s inaugural 9U team represents the beginning of a new era in San Antonio youth baseball, combining elite coaching, advanced training methods, and comprehensive player development to create championship experiences for dedicated young athletes. Our 9U team provides the perfect introduction to competitive baseball while building the fundamentals and character that support lifelong success in the sport.
I can’t say enough good things about Ball 2 Barrel. This place is exactly what the city has been missing for players who are serious about the game. It’s not just a place to rent a cage; it’s a real academy where they take your development personally. From day one, the coaches have been incredible. They did a full evaluation and put together a specific plan for my kid. The training is next-level and covers everything—not just hitting and pitching, but strength & conditioning, baseball IQ, stretching, and even sports psychology. The facility itself is insane, with all the top-tier tech like HitTrax and Rapsodo. The best part is the coaches know how to use that data to make a real difference. If your kid is serious about baseball, this is where they need to be. Highly, highly recommend!
