[Fergy14]

Hit your own balls yes live pitching yes and we are working on a screen I dont have one trying to see if anyone thats hitting with us has one...the have one there thats in the narrow cages if no one is using them then we can probably get that one and I have league there tomorrow night so I will know for sure about wed night tomorrow I will text you when I get there and let you know if its open. If not they have the narrow cages there that we are going to hit in wed night same thing hit your own balls with a screen just cant work on to much in those cages but its swings...

[RB27]

If not there I can maybe call Chilly to see if their tunnel if avalible. You can't work on anything but you do get swings off live pitching.
