Professional Baseball & Softball Instruction for the Serious Player

Just Hits started from a dream of Mike Just while playing professional baseball. To pass on the knowledge and experiences he learned at all levels of the game he started "Just Hits" by himself in the indoor batting cages of St. Joseph Regional High School (Montvale), then moved to a store front in Park Ridge with two more instructors. Today, Just Hits has grown into a 11,400 sq ft facility in Westwood with four hitting/fielding instructors, 2 pitching/fielding instructors, 3 softball instructors and 2 strength/conditioning coach plus several of the instructors are crossed trained/certified in fitness and conditioning. They also provide sports psychology to cover the mental part of the game as well.

“Here at Just Hits, we prefer serious baseball/softball players only. Our focus is on the baseball and softball players who really want to improve rather than those that are forced to improve. Our entire staff has been playing for over 20 years and has most recently been in professional ball within the past 5 years competing against high level professional competition.

We have connections with high schools and colleges for both baseball and softball as well as some professional connections. We have no problem making calls on our client’s behalf to help the player in pursuit of his or her dreams and desired schools. There is never a guarantee, but we will try for our client.”

However, what I can guarantee is the professional knowledge and care your son/daughter will receive for his/her lesson will exceed your expectations. We rarely cancel lessons on our end and our pro staff will go above and beyond to ensure your son/daughter is special and is the most important person during his/her lesson. This quality is really what your son/daughter rightly deserves.

After a bond has been established and the trust factor is set, outside of the lesson when necessary or advised by a parent, our pro staff will help with conversations for school work and/or the trials and tribulations of peer pressure while sticking to his/her moral code. Also, if your son/daughter proves to respond accordingly then we have no problem writing recommendation letters wherever necessary as well.

The bottom line is that we are all about your son/daughter's success in life.
To our pro staff, this is more than just another lesson.

Note From Staff:

“Be very cautious of those facilities who claim they are professional instruction but have some high school and college instructors. Be sure to research your current instructor so you know his/her accolades!! At every level the game changes and you learn more and more intricacies.

This is why we put a detailed biography of each of our staff. Our minimum staff requirement is PROFESSIONAL for baseball and D1 or All-American for softball. Also be careful of the places that pitch theory and philosophy in association with sports science rather than specifically teaching facts based on math and physics from the experienced professional himself.

Our facility has continued to grow in the best direction possible and clients couldn’t be happier! Remember, there is NO substitute for professional experience. For the sake of your child’s potential career, please choose your facility wisely. We would love to be a part of your child’s hopes and dreams!
Thank you!”
