D-BAT was founded in 1998 was considered at the time by many to be the premier baseball and softball training facility in the country.

Our main goal was to provide a quality teaching environment with professional instruction to enhance the baseball and softball experience for players at all levels and help them reach their goals.

In setting forth on the journey to accomplish this vision, D-BAT opened its original location in a small facility in North Dallas with 6 employees – D-BAT believed that the best way to teach the game was by getting into the details of baseball and softball with each and every player and instructing them as individuals. D-BAT has as a core belief that every player plays a different game and should be taught to maximize his or her talents to suit his or her game. We also wanted to create a new type of baseball academy where there are multiple ways for a player to improve beyond the typical baseball training facility. D-BAT Academies feature an exceptionally well-lit, indoor climate-controlled facility,with an environment that invites parents to be a part of their ballplayer’s development along with a top notch pro shop to provide all your equipment needs.

D-BAT began franchising operations in 2008 and today is the Largest network of training facilities in the country. Our current staff is over 300 strong and we are still considered the premier facility in the country. This is due in large part to the innovative way that D-BAT has connected the player and parent with coaches and facilities to better the game.

With over 17 years of successfully fulfilling the original vision, D-BAT is now moving to expanding its prestigious academies to reach even more players and enhance the baseball and softball experience for players at all levels. We never stop innovating and enhancing our methods to make players better.

From developmental youth camps and private lessons… to the latest equipment and hottest apparel, D-BAT is your premier baseball and softball training center.
