Backyard League Gaming Baseball for Kids | Real Baseball with Sensors and App | Play, Train, Analyze and Connect with Others. Measures Throw Power, Glove Movement and More!

The first thing my kids, 11 and 7 years old, wanted to do was see how fast they could throw the ball. I would say its pretty accurate. It was so motivating for them to see their actual MPH! Were looking forward to trying all the other games too. The only downside was that its a little hard for my 7 year old to push the orange button before every throw. He can do it but he needs 2 hands. Also loved that theres no subscription attached to it. All the other bluetooth baseball gear we bought really only works if we paid for a subscription on top of the equipment.

This is a great way to motivate kids to practice fielding.My son just wanted to hit, but the games on this app made him want to play catch. I have seen a marked improvement in his fielding since playing with this before the baseball season.Pros :Great motivational tool for catching and throwing skills.Great feel. Size, weight and feel of a regular baseball.Games are designed to improve fielding skills.Cons :A bit pricey.At times ball can ‘glitch out’ and not record throws, catches, etc. But works fine after turning off and on and re-connecting.Should be more games. No games to practice ground ball skills.

Honestly I never write reviews, but this thing is awesome. My son, who’s 7, is constantly on the move. He got this as a Xmas gift and has been nonstop playing with it. The names the app gives you are hilarious and he loves competing against others.

This is a fun and cool training baseball. Note that it is for pitching/throwing and not for hitting. There are several videos on the listing which will give you an overall idea of the application of this ball as well as hell to set up some of the features. You must connect it to either iPhone or android. You can also connected to a Bluetooth speaker, which is a great addition, but is not required. Great for younger kids to like the idea of collecting points and making it more of a game as well. It’s great that there are no subscription fees.

I think this is something my son and I would like, but it only worked for 24 throws and now it won't work. Pushing the ball button does nothing. Changed the battery and nothing. Anyone have any ideas? If it worked it would be good I think and I would change my rating on this.

I ordered this for my son. He just started playing baseball in the fall. He and I are both so excited about this product. It makes practicing so much fun. The ability to track progress is so great. And the fact that you can score points like in a video game is such a cool concept. He is practicing so much more than he did before we got this. And I feel like he will be so much more prepared for practices and games in the spring. I love that this product come with everything you need, including the battery. I also like that the primary component can is inserted in and can be removed from the ball. Very convenient in case you need to buy a replacement ball. My only concern is how easy it is to lose baseballs when practicing. With the cost, I hope in the future they can figure out a way to make this transferable to a regular baseball or provide multiples at this price so that losing it isn’t such a worry. However, I will say I believe the improvement my son has shown makes this product worth every penny. I have already recommended this product to many people I know . with kids who play baseball and even softball. If you’re considering this, definitely go for it!!!

The idea behind this backyard league baseball sounds pretty cool. You get a baseball that has bluetooth tracking and with the use of a free app, you track your progress, receive scores and encouragement, and can compete against your friends or against anyone around the world. The baseball is official size and weight (I weighed and measured then compared it to a real baseball), but it has an opening to insert a battery-operated tracker. The battery is included. It’s important to note that the baseball is not meant for batting.There aren’t a lot of instructions included with the package, but more instructions come when you download the app (App store or Google Play).My star rating at this time is based on the premise of the game and the quality of the baseball itself. A more thorough review will come after Christmas when my ball player gets his hands on this baseball game :) I’m eager to try it out!
