Swing Sensor Training Terms

Player/Parent Swing Sensor Training Terms of Use

Agreement & Waiver

Hitting Pros is pleased to offer you a remote baseball training plan! The following outlines our rules and guidelines to follow. Now you can train smart anywhere you are. This training program can be done in conjunction or addition to any private lessons, team schedule, travel ball, or camps your player is currently attending. We have found that players who experience the most success practice what we teach on their own time at least 20 minutes daily, in addition to their scheduled practices, lessons or games with their regular team.

There is a lot of information here that can help you and your player become successful on and off the field.

Our program is an excellent way for your player to take ownership of their development and easily track their progress using the swing sensor provided for use during your enrollment in any of our training plans. The swing sensor easily attaches to the knob of any bat and can be used during normal batting practices, games, or tee work in your back yard or local park.

Baseball is a game of repetition and consistency. Our methods and techniques are proven to motivate and help players learn proper skills and have fun while practicing and training. Coachable players focused on having fun and working hard to get better every day are much more likely to be chosen by high school and college coaches. Parents who maintain a positive, supportive approach to baseball with a focus on the process instead of results or wins are much more likely to help develop mentally strong players who have no fear of adversity.

The swing sensor will automatically save metrics such as swing angle and bat speed anytime the attached bat makes contact with a baseball and the sensor is charged. At the end of any training session, swing information and metrics can be downloaded to a free app on your device with one click. With a long battery life, the sensor is very easy to re-charge using the wireless charger provided.

If you choose either the Advanced or Premium options, personalized video feedback is easy to record and receive. Your regular baseball coach or one of our coaches can provide you with personalized drills, tips and analysis through a premium app. With your Advanced or Premium plan, any video recorded through the premium app is automatically edited, saved, and sent to us or your regular coach (or both, you can choose).

It is recommended to take an average of at least 100 swings each session (20-30 minutes) to accurately measure swing metrics using the swing sensor. Each swing individually can have slight nuances and variances, so results can be frustrating if you look at metrics one swing at a time. Most importantly, there should never be a rush to finish a workout quickly or start swinging too hard too fast. All the muscles used to swing a bat take time to warm up.

Terms:

Terms may change from time to time and you can check this site periodically for any changes. In order to use our site and register for our services, you must be over the age of 18 or under the supervision of someone over 18. By continuing to use or pay for Hitting Pros memberships, you agree to any changes.

Registration and payment information is completed by a third party. Their privacy policy can be found here: https://www.jotform.com/help/9-Privacy-Policy

Each remote training option includes all costs for bulleted items listed. We encourage players to play multiple sports. Reduced pricing available for multiple siblings - financial aid also available.

Swing sensor is for your use during your enrollment in any training plan. Payments are billed until client chooses to change training plan, pause due to injury, or cancel.* There are no membership refunds.

Coaching review of player video:

Coaching review for 20 minutes of player video usually consists of 10-20 minutes of notes and analysis per month. Coaching review for unlimited player video usually consists of 45-60 minutes of notes and analysis per month.

Coaching review also includes personalized tips and recommended drills.

Advanced and Premium - Video Suggestions:

It is recommended that videos include the entirety of the player from below the feet to top of the bat. Ideal viewpoints during a swing are either a side angle that faces the player’s chest or a view of the player’s stance from behind a backstop pointing towards home plate.

With both Advanced and Premium options, videos of the player taken through the premium app using your device’s camera will be automatically edited, saved and sent to us.

If you need to video through another method, it is recommended that you limit videos to 15-20 second increments. Most people would take video of a swing or an at-bat during practices, training or games.

To send videos not taken through the premium app:

1. Take video of the player in practices or games on your device.

2. Send videos as attachments or Google Drive/Dropbox link to videos@hittingpros.com.

3. Receive ongoing personalized instruction and drills! We use age-appropriate and effective techniques.

Please include the player’s name in your subject line since we receive many videos. Please allow 48 hours for processing.

14.           Dispute Resolution and Arbitration
(a)             Generally. In the interest of resolving disputes between you and Hitting Pros in the most expedient and cost effective manner, you and Hitting Pros agree that any and all disputes arising in connection with this AGREEMENT will be resolved by binding arbitration. Arbitration is more informal than a lawsuit in court. Arbitration uses a neutral arbitrator instead of a judge or jury, may allow for more limited discovery than in court, and can be subject to very limited review by courts. Arbitrators can award the same damages and relief that a court can award. Our agreement to arbitrate disputes includes, but is not limited to all claims arising out of or relating to any aspect of this AGREEMENT, whether based in contract, tort, statute, fraud, misrepresentation or any other legal theory, and regardless of whether the claims arise during or after the termination of this AGREEMENT. YOU UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT, BY ENTERING INTO THIS AGREEMENT, YOU AND HITTING PROS ARE EACH WAIVING THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY OR TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION.
(b)             Exceptions. Notwithstanding Section 14(a), we both agree that nothing in this AGREEMENT will be deemed to waive, preclude, or otherwise limit either of our right to: (i) bring an individual action in small claims court; (ii) pursue enforcement actions through applicable federal, state, or local agencies where such actions are available; (iii) seek injunctive relief in a court of law; or (iv) to file suit in a court of law to address intellectual property infringement claims.
(c)             Arbitrator. Any arbitration between you and Hitting Pros will be governed by the Commercial Dispute Resolution Procedures and the Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes (collectively, “AAA Rules”) of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”), as modified by this AGREEMENT, and will be administered by the AAA. The AAA Rules and filing forms are available online at www.adr.org, by calling the AAA at 1-800-778-7879, or by contacting Hitting Pros.
(d)             Notice; Process. A party who intends to seek arbitration must first send a written notice of the dispute to the other, by certified mail or Federal Express (signature required), or if we do not have a physical address on file for you, by electronic mail (“Notice”). Hitting Pros’s address for Notice is: Hitting Pros, 9121 Atlanta Ave Ste. 826 Huntington Beach, CA 92646. The Notice must: (i) describe the nature and basis of the claim or dispute; and (ii) set forth the specific relief sought (“Demand”). We agree to use good faith efforts to resolve the claim directly, but if we do not reach an agreement to do so within 30 days after the Notice is received, you or Hitting Pros may commence an arbitration proceeding. During the arbitration, the amount of any settlement offer made by you or Hitting Pros must not be disclosed to the arbitrator until after the arbitrator makes a final decision and award, if any. If our dispute is finally resolved through arbitration in your favor, Hitting Pros will pay you: (a) the amount awarded by the arbitrator, if any; (b) the last written settlement amount offered by Hitting Pros in settlement of the dispute prior to the arbitrator’s award; or (c) $100, whichever is lesser.
(e)             Fees. If you commence arbitration in accordance with this AGREEMENT, Hitting Pros will reimburse you for your payment of the filing fee, unless your claim is for greater than $100, in which case the payment of any fees will be decided by the AAA Rules. Any arbitration hearings will take place at a location to be agreed upon in Orange County, California, provided that if the claim is for $100 or less, you may choose whether the arbitration will be conducted: (i) solely on the basis of documents submitted to the arbitrator; (ii) through a non-appearance based telephonic hearing; or (iii) by an in-person hearing as established by the AAA Rules in the county (or parish) of your billing address. If the arbitrator finds that either the substance of your claim or the relief sought in the Demand is frivolous or brought for an improper purpose (as measured by the standards set forth in Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11(b)), then the payment of all fees will be governed by the AAA Rules. In such case, you agree to reimburse Hitting Pros for all monies previously disbursed by it that are otherwise your obligation to pay under the AAA Rules. Regardless of the manner in which the arbitration is conducted, the arbitrator will issue a reasoned written decision sufficient to explain the essential findings and conclusions on which the decision and award, if any, are based. The arbitrator may make rulings and resolve disputes as to the payment and reimbursement of fees or expenses at any time during the proceeding and upon request from either party made within 14 days of the arbitrator’s ruling on the merits.
(f)              No Class Actions. YOU AND HITTING PROS AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. Further, unless both you and Hitting Pros agree otherwise, the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person’s claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding.
(g)             Modifications. If Hitting Pros makes any future change to this arbitration provision (other than a change to Hitting Pros’s address for Notice), you may reject any such change by sending us written notice within 30 days of the change to Hitting Pros’s address for Notice, in which case your account with Hitting Pros will immediately be terminated and this arbitration provision, as in effect immediately prior to the amendments you reject will survive.
(h)             Enforceability. If Section 14(f) is found to be unenforceable or if the entirety of this Section 14 is found to be unenforceable, then the entirety of this Section 14 will be null and void and, in that case, the parties agree that the exclusive jurisdiction and venue described in Section 12 will govern any action arising out of or related to this AGREEMENT.

15. Consent to Electronic Communications. By using the Service, you consent to receiving certain electronic communications from us as further described in our Privacy Policy. Please read our Privacy Policy to learn more about your choices regarding our electronic communications practices. You agree that any notices, agreements, disclosures, or other communications that we send to you electronically will satisfy any legal communication requirements, including that such communications be in writing.

I (Player/Parent) have read and fully understand Hitting Pros Player/Parent Terms & Waiver. By acknowledging and agreeing to this waiver and terms, I agree to all obligations listed in this agreement and agree to honor these obligations to the fullest extent.
