Product Overview
JUGS Lite-Flite Softballs are built to give younger players a realistic training experience while eliminating the fear of impact common with regulation softballs. Made from a soft, sponge-like material, these balls mimic the trajectory of regulation softballs but are gentle enough for confident swinging.
Their lightweight construction makes them safe for indoor training even without a batting cage, while their durable shape retention ensures consistent performance pitch after pitch, even at higher machine speeds. They are engineered specifically for use with the JUGS Lite-Flite Machine.
Sold by the dozen in Game-Ball Yellow and available in 11 in. or 12 in. sizes, these softballs are suited for backyard players, youth leagues, high schools, and hitting facilities looking to build hitting confidence and skill.
