Set up a full 5' × 7' hitting target in under 60 seconds — then fold it back into its carry bag when you're done. The sock-style pocket catches and holds every ball in one spot, so you spend practice hitting, not chasing.
Train anywhere in under a minute. The Louisville Slugger Portable Practice Sock Net pops open in seconds and collapses just as fast into its included carry bag. Backyard, driveway, garage, gym, or outfield — if you have a few feet of space, you have a practice station.
The sock keeps every ball in one place. Unlike a flat net that sprays balls back at you, the deep sock-style pocket funnels and holds hits in the center. Less chasing, more reps — and a tidy practice area when you're done.
Built for real, repeated use. A sturdy fiberglass frame and heavy-duty netting take hard contact from tee work, soft toss, front toss, and throwing drills, season after season.
One net, every drill:
- Tee work and dry-swing targets
- Soft-toss and front-toss hitting
- Throwing and accuracy drills
- Solo backyard reps or full-team hitting stations
Perfect for: parents building a backyard practice space, coaches setting up multiple hitting stations, and players who want to get reps in without needing someone to shag balls.

Frequently Asked Questions
How long does it take to set up?
Under 60 seconds. The frame pops open and the net is ready — no tools required.
How big is it?
5 feet wide by 7 feet tall — tall enough for full swings from youth through adult, and narrow enough for backyards, garages, and driveways.
Does it come with a carry bag?
Yes. It folds flat and packs into the included bag for easy transport and storage.
Can I use it for both baseball and softball?
Yes. It works with baseballs, softballs, and training/limited-flight balls, for both hitting and throwing drills.
Will it stay put outside?
On grass, stake it down with the included ground stakes for stability. On hard surfaces, it stands on its own for lighter drills.
Is it good for team practice?
Yes — coaches use several to build multiple hitting stations. Check out the Soft-Toss Bundle to add a machine and ball caddy and save 20%.
