About The Backstop
Located at 121 N 31st St in Temple, The Backstop offers a clean and inviting space for batting practice, especially appealing when the weather doesn’t cooperate. The facility features a range of batting cages designed to help players hone their skills. While the operating hours are somewhat limited, opening daily at 4 PM and staying open until 9 PM, it’s worth noting that the venue is closed on weekends, which may not suit everyone’s schedule.

The atmosphere is described as wonderful, making it an excellent choice for teams looking to practice together.

However, some visitors have pointed out that the hours could be more accommodating, particularly during busy tournament times.
