Our fast pitch booth is another popular
attraction. It uses a radar gun to measure the speed that someone throws a baseball. The speed of every pitch is immediately displayed on a 12
x 18 inch screen.
A framework of aluminum tubing is draped
with netting to create a boxed enclosure ten feet wide,
fifteen feet long, and ten feet high. The enclosure prevents
any balls from escaping. Participants throw the balls into
the enclosure at a radar gun sitting on the
other side of the netting. (Note the radar gun on the small
tripod behind the enclosure.)
It's also a great tool for little
league and softball teams who want to improve their pitching skills.
Pitching contests are always popular.
You can have different categories of participants, and the fastest
pitch in each category at the end of the day gets a prize.
The competition is hot and emotions run high at the fast pitch booth!
