There are new batting cages at the YMCA.  According to YMCA Director, Bruce Blanshan, the two new batting cages are on the mezzanine level and are ready for rental.  Individuals can rent 30 minutes for $20 for a YMCA member and $30 for a non-member, or one hour for $40 for a member and $60 for a non-member.  Teams can also rent for $70 for members and $90 for non-members. 

A coach or parent must be a member to get the member rate.  A coach or parent must be present unless the child is 14 or older.  Batting cage rental must be paid for and reserved in person or by phone.  No online booking is going on and 50% of the fee is due at the time of booking.

The batting cages are open from 11:30-6, Monday through Friday, and 9 AM-1:30 PM on Saturday.  The batting cages are closed on Sunday.  For more information, contact the YMCA at 217-287-7271, ext. 1.
