Softball players
train here too.
Private 1-on-1 softball lessons in Bonney Lake: hitting, fielding, throwing and catching, filmed every session with a practice plan home within 48 hours. Rec, fastpitch, travel. First session is free.
Hitting
A swing built for a pitch that comes from below the hands, not above them. Tee and front toss on the softball plane, barrel control, and an approach that isn't just baseball with a bigger ball.
Fielding
Shorter base paths mean the ball has to leave the glove faster. Glove-to-hand transfers, short hops, footwork through the ball and the quick release every infielder needs.
Throwing
Arm care first, then mechanics and accuracy. Overhand throwing that holds up through a tournament weekend, for every position on the field.
Catching
Receiving, blocking and footwork behind the plate, plus the throw to second. Catchers who make the pitcher look good get the innings.
The Garage doesn't care which ball it is.
Everything happens closer
The pitcher is closer, the bases are closer and the ball is on you sooner. Softball rewards players who decide early and move clean. That's trainable, and it's most of what we train.
The ball arrives from a different place
A windmill release comes from below the waist and flattens or rises on the way in. A bat path copied from baseball drops under it. We build the swing for the pitch your player actually sees.
Film shows what the bench can't
Every rep is recorded. Your player sees their own front foot, their own hands, their own transfer, and the practice plan home within 48 hours points at the exact frame to fix.
Indoors, all winter
Fastpitch starts early and the fields are underwater until March. The Garage is heated and open evenings and weekends, so the off-season is when the work actually gets done.

Book a free first session
Tell us it's softball on the intake form. We film the first session, coach it, and send home an honest read on where your player is.

Lock a weekly time
Same coach, same slot, every week. The plan builds session over session instead of starting over each visit.
- 03
Run the plan between visits
Every session ends with a practice plan in your inbox within 48 hours: drills for The Garage, the backyard, or the living room when it's pouring.

Built for the pitch your player actually sees.
Rec, fastpitch and travel players from the whole plateau.
Bonney Lake, Tehaleh, Sumner, Lake Tapps, Puyallup, Orting, Buckley. Players between seasons, players chasing a travel roster, players who just want to stop being scared of the ball. The Garage is a short drive from all of it.
Do you actually coach softball, or is this baseball with a bigger ball?
We coach softball players as softball players. The swing plane, the reaction window, the base paths and the way the ball arrives are all different, and the plan we send home is built for the game your player is actually in. The intake form has a Softball option so the coach knows before the first session.
What ages do you work with?
Same as baseball: five years old through high school. A seven-year-old in rec coach-pitch and a fourteen-year-old on a fastpitch travel roster get very different sessions in the same garage.
Do you teach windmill pitching?
Our pitching work is throwing mechanics, arm care and accuracy, which carry straight over to the circle. For a dedicated windmill pitching specialist, we'll tell you straight if we're not the right fit and point you to someone who is. Everything else, including catching the pitcher, we've got.
My player is a lefty. Do you work on slap hitting?
Yes. Footwork, timing out of the box and contact on the move, plus the full swing so the slap stays a weapon instead of the only option.
What should we bring?
Their bat and glove. The Garage has softballs, tees, nets and everything else. It's indoors, so normal training clothes are fine year-round.
How much does it cost?
First session is free. After that it's $45 per 30-minute session, or Club Membership at $199 a month for three 60-minute sessions with film and analysis. Same pricing as baseball, same two coaches.
Bring the bat. We'll handle the rest.
Thirty private minutes, filmed, with an honest read on where your player is and what to work on next. No payment, no commitment. Just reps.
