THE EXPERIENCE
You keep saying we should catch up, then it's dinner and drinks again. Switch it up. Jump in a cage at The Ballpark Kotara, take a few cuts and find out who in the group chat is all talk.
Every swing shows up on screen with how hard and how far you hit it, so nobody gets to fudge the numbers. First timers are more than welcome. Plenty of Newcastle has had its first ever hit right here.
Got a bigger crew? Our VIP area comes with its own private cage, darts and a lounge for up to 15, so the whole night stays in one spot.
Four steps to your first hit
HOW IT WORKS
Lock in a cage. Book online or ask the team at the bar.
Gear up. We sort you out with bats and helmets and give you a quick rundown before the first pitch.
Start swinging. Take turns, watch your stats pop up on screen and keep score on whoever is talking the biggest game.
Refuel. Burgers, wings and cold beers are only a few steps away when you need a breather.

REVIEWS
"Genuinely had such a great time here at The Ballpark. Tried out the batting cage experience for the first time and was surprised how beginner friendly it was. You definitely don't need to be sporty to have a good time here. Service overall was fantastic."
Elizabeth, Portside

FAQS
-
Not at all. Plenty of people have their first ever swing here. The machine does the pitching, you just do the hitting (or the trying).
-
We'd recommend it, especially on Friday and Saturday nights and big game days. If a cage is free, walk ins are welcome.
-
Up to 10 per cage. Got more than that? Book a second cage and turn it into a proper rivalry.
-
Yes. Kids 3 and up are welcome in the cages with an adult around. We also run kids party packages.

Something comfy you can swing in and closed shoes. We supply the bats and helmets.
-
Absolutely. From a few mates to the whole venue, we've got packages, private spaces and a VIP cage with its own lounge. Send us your headcount and we'll sort the rest.
