About Us :: Introducing BatSpeed®
 
BatSpeed Academy is a brand new, baseball and softball academy which opened in Gurnee, IL in June, 2008. This 17,800 square foot, air conditioned, year-round indoor facility is conveniently located in the Tri-State Business Park immediately west of Six Flags Theme Park®. Ample parking is available directly adjacent to the facility. The facility features state-of-the-art equipment including video analysis and speed & agility training.

Local owner Scott Czerniejewski, 36, not only oversees daily operations, but also has put together a fifteen person instructional staff who, along with himself, have solid teaching credentials. In recognition of the increasing popularity of fast-pitch softball, three members of the staff have in-depth, softball teaching credentials.

Every member of the staff is committed to providing instruction which is custom-tailored to the physical abilities, needs and goals of the individual player. The objective is to make that individual the very best he or she can be.

All ages are welcome... from the youngster just learning the fundamentals to the high school and collegiate player looking to take their game to the next level. Teams will also find BatSpeed’s flexible layout useful for infield practice in addition to hitting and pitching practice.

Scott, whose passion for baseball began as a child, will be the first to tell you he is living his dream with the opening of this new baseball and softball academy. He invites everyone who shares his love of the game to experience BatSpeed.
