The Baseball & Softball Club™ is a vertically integrated platform — not just another batting cage — built to level up every athlete who walks through the door. We fuse gamified simulation training with on-demand custom fittings for bats, fielding gloves, and uniforms, all under one roof. Membership drives predictable cash flow.

All Sports Inflatables (ASI)
Provides the physical infrastructure: portable inflatable enclosures with full ball containment, reinforced impact screens, and fast setup/teardown for mobile deployments that go wherever the game is.
HitTrax Simulation
Provides the intelligence: real-time ball-flight tracking, performance analytics, gameplay, and data-driven hitting experiences trusted by MLB organizations and elite training facilities.
Indoor Environments
Shopping malls, gyms, warehouses, convention centers, training facilities, and event halls. The inflatable enclosure sets up fast in any large indoor space, delivering a pro-level simulator experience without permanent construction.
Outdoor Environments
Parks, sports complexes, parking lots, tournaments, and brand activations. Weather-resistant and self-contained, the enclosure can be deployed almost anywhere outdoors — putting the simulator experience directly in front of players and fans.

Platform Engine
Gamification + Infrastructure = Growth Flywheel
HitTrax simulation, on-demand custom fittings, and portable inflatable simulators don't just coexist under one roof — they compound. Every training session deepens engagement. Every fitting drives commerce. Every portable deployment expands reach. The result: deeper retention, stronger margins, and a platform that gets more valuable with every member, every session, and every location.
Gamified Training
HitTrax-powered performance tracking, leaderboards, and league play keep athletes competing, improving, and coming back.
Data & Analytics
Every session captures performance data that sharpens development and makes the platform stickier over time.
Commerce
Custom bat fittings, gloves, uniforms, and collectibles — available on demand, sold to athletes who are already invested in the game and ready to buy.
NIL Opportunities
Workshops and podcasts keep athletes and parents ahead of the NIL curve — and help young players build their personal brand and start monetizing their name, image, and likeness.
Portable Simulator
Revenue beyond your four walls — bringing MLB-grade experiences to tournaments, events, and brand activations.
National Team & Academy
Elite performers get called up. Top club members unlock national tournaments, premier camps, and showcase events where college recruiters and MLB scouts are watching — and futures get decided.
Revenue Stack
Multi-Layer Revenue Flywheel
Six interlocking revenue streams — each one engineered to feed the next. Memberships anchor recurring cash flow. Gamified training and cage rentals drive frequency. Equipment and apparel sales capture commerce at the point of engagement. And portable simulator events extend revenue beyond the four walls into tournaments, activations, and brand partnerships.
Membership ($50–$75/mo across 3 tiers)
Three membership tiers — Base Hit ($50/mo), Double Play ($60/mo), and Home Run ($75/mo) — create recurring revenue that powers the platform and keeps athletes leveling up.
HitTrax Cage Rentals & Leagues
Gamified bookings and league play that turn practice into competition.
Volunteer Coaches
Experienced coaches get free facility access in exchange for running clinics and lessons — making elite development available to every athlete, regardless of what they can afford.
Equipment & Bat Sales
MLB-grade bats, balls, and protective gear for athletes who want the best.
Apparel + Merchandise
Branded apparel, collectibles, and player merch built for an engaged community.
Portable Simulator Events
Off-site revenue from tournaments, events, and activations that extend the platform beyond the four walls.
Franchise Footprint
Flexible Models From 2,500 to 6,000 Sq Ft
Whether you're breaking into a dense urban market or serving a wide suburban community, The Baseball & Softball Club is a platform with a buildout model that lets athletes level up in the space you have and the budget you bring.
Compact — 2,500 Sq Ft
Built for mall inline spaces, strip centers, and urban markets. Lower buildout costs, faster launch, and a high-traffic footprint that brings the game closer to more athletes.
Standard — 4,000 Sq Ft
The flagship format. Multiple batting cages, full HitTrax setup, retail area, coaching space, and a member lounge — all connected through a gamified training experience.
Full Complex — 6,000 Sq Ft
Maximum revenue potential. More cages, event space, team training areas, and full retail for athletes ready to go all in.

Unit Economics
Strong Returns Built Into the Model
The numbers work because the model is designed to compound. Recurring memberships create a predictable revenue floor. Gamified training drives session frequency. Equipment and apparel sales layer on high-margin commerce. And breakeven at just 75 members means operators reach profitability fast — before the platform's full revenue stack is even activated.

Franchise Support
We Don't Just Sell Franchises — We Build Platform Operators
From the moment you sign to the day you open and every day after, you're backed by a full-stack support system: territory protection, buildout guidance, HitTrax operator training, a marketing playbook, financing connections, and direct access to MLB-certified equipment and apparel at wholesale pricing. We don't just sell franchises — we build platform operators.
Territory Protection
Own an exclusive market with no nearby franchise competition — a protected launchpad for a platform that compounds every revenue stream.
Buildout Support
We guide site selection, layout design, equipment specs, and contractor coordination so you can open strong as a platform operator, not just a facility owner.
Operator Training
Hands-on training in platform operations, gamified training, HitTrax, coaching management, sales, and marketing.
Marketing Playbook
Launch with grand opening campaigns, social templates, community outreach tools, and ongoing brand support that drives awareness and keeps athletes engaged.
Financing Assistance
We connect qualified operators with SBA loans, equipment financing, and capital resources to help lower upfront barriers and expand access.
Revenue Sharing Options
Selected partnership models offer revenue sharing that aligns our wins with yours and rewards long-term performance across the platform.
Affordable Franchise Fees
Built to be one of the most accessible entries in sports and fitness — so more operators can bring professional-level development to every athlete in their community.
Equipment, Apparel & Collectibles
Direct access to MLB-certified bats, balls, gear, branded apparel, and collectibles at wholesale pricing, creating commerce that supports the rest of the platform.
Scale Strategy
Build the Network. Own the Market.
Every location that opens makes the entire network stronger. Shared data sharpens athlete development. A growing member base deepens brand credibility. And a national footprint of gamified training, custom fittings, and portable simulator deployments creates the kind of platform density that no single-location operator can replicate.
01
Phase 1 — Launch & Validate
Open the first locations. Prove the model. Fine-tune the experience, sharpen the membership offer, and show real demand.
02
Phase 2 — Franchise Expansion
Scale into high-density markets with a proven playbook built to create local impact and stronger platform value.
03
Phase 3 — NIL & Athlete Distribution
Activate NIL partnerships and athlete distribution to widen reach, fuel the pipeline, and connect more athletes to the platform.
04
Phase 4 — Platform Scale
Expand the full ecosystem — membership, retail, apparel, and portable simulators — into a nationally recognized brand built to level up athletes everywhere.
Growth Trajectory
The line chart shows the projected rise in locations and revenue over five years. From 1 location and $3.55M in Year 1, the network grows to 15 locations and $18M by Year 5 — a clear signal of platform scale, athlete demand, and franchise upside.
Competitive Advantage
Why The Baseball & Softball Club Wins
The moat around this platform is real. The Baseball & Softball Club™, powered by Overfly Academy, is a vertically integrated platform — not just another batting cage — built to level up every athlete who walks through the door. We fuse gamified simulation training with on-demand custom fittings for bats, fielding gloves, and uniforms, all under one roof. Membership drives predictable cash flow. Gamification drives stickiness. Commerce drives margin. And our portable simulators take the experience beyond the four walls — putting professional-level development within reach of every athlete, regardless of zip code or budget.
Gamified Engagement Engine
HitTrax-powered performance gamification turns training into competition. Athletes return because they're chasing progress, raising scores, and leveling up.
Physical + Digital Hybrid Model
No competitor blends real-world training, digital engagement, and NIL into one platform. That mix creates real switching costs that a purely digital or purely physical operator can't match.
Built-In NIL Distribution Engine
Youth athlete NIL is just getting started, and this platform is built for it. The Baseball & Softball Club is the only franchise concept with NIL infrastructure at the core.
No Direct Full-Stack Competitor
The market has batting cages. It has sports apps. It has collectible drops. No one has fused training, data, engagement, commerce, and NIL into one franchised platform.
Join the Next Generation of Youth Sports
Early franchise operators will own prime territory in the fastest-growing youth sports platform in America. This is a rare first-mover opportunity in a category where athletes level up through gamified training, MLB-grade technology, and a platform built to make professional-level development available to every athlete — not just those who can afford it.
Early Market Entry
Claim prime territories before the national rollout accelerates and the best markets are gone.
Platform-Level Returns
Back a platform where membership drives cash flow, gamification drives stickiness, commerce drives margin, and portable simulators expand reach beyond the four walls.
Full Operator Support
From site selection to grand opening and beyond — we equip operators to build something bigger.

Powered by an MLB-certified equipment manufacturing business already generating proven annual revenue — built on traction, now evolving into a platform where every revenue stream feeds the next.
Massive Market
Built for 9M–12M youth players across the U.S. and Mexico in a $10B–$20B underserved market that is ready for better access, better experiences, and professional-level development for all athletes.
Scalable Model
A vertically integrated sportstech platform — membership, gamification, commerce, and portable simulators — designed for rapid multi-location expansion, recurring revenue, and athlete development that extends beyond the four walls.
The Problem
Youth Baseball & Softball Is Broken
Millions of young athletes — especially in underserved communities — are stuck outside the game, held back by a system built on cost instead of access, with no affordable, structured way to level up their baseball and softball skills.
High Cost Barriers
Equipment and training costs shut families out before athletes ever get a real chance to level up — instead of making professional-level development available to all athletes.
Declining Participation
Youth participation keeps dropping in underrepresented communities when there’s no accessible, gamified on-ramp to keep them engaged.
No Development Pathway
Without a structured path, talented athletes never get the consistent training experience they need to move forward.
Underrepresentation
Key demographics — particularly Hispanic youth — remain underserved by sports infrastructure that should be opening doors, not closing them.
The Baseball & Softball Club™ powered by Overfly Academy is a vertically integrated sportstech platform — not just another batting cage — built to level up every athlete who walks through the door. We fuse gamified simulation training with on-demand custom fittings for bats, fielding gloves, and uniforms, all under one roof — giving youth athletes affordable access to MLB-grade technology, expert coaching, and a clear path from beginner to exposure-level play. Professional-level development, available to every athlete, regardless of zip code or budget.
Beginner
Start with affordable access. Members unlock custom fittings, equipment discounts, a practice facility, and personalized lessons that make it easy to level up.
Development
Train with gamified reps, structured group and private coaching, and HitTrax for measurable progress athletes can see and chase.
Elite
Push into high-performance work with ASI and MLB-grade technology, built to make advanced development accessible to every athlete.
Exposure
Open the next door with showcases, athlete pipelines, and NIL education for players ready for college ball and beyond.

Phase 1 Investor Journey
Team
Founder & Leadership
Built by someone who lived the problem — and has the credentials to solve it.
Alejandro Villarreal | CEO & Founder
A Mexican entrepreneur from Los Mochis, Sinaloa, Alejandro founded Overfly Sports in 2016 after earning a BBA in Accounting from SMU Cox School of Business and an M.S. in Engineering/Industrial Management from Southern Methodist University. He built Overfly to help athletes train better, compete harder, and access a pro-level experience that was never built for everyone. Today, Overfly is the only Mexican MLB-certified wood bat manufacturer, with 10+ MLB player ambassadors including Manny Machado, Ketel Marte, and Luis Arraez, plus 50+ minor league ambassadors. In 2023, the company acquired Powerbull Bat Co.'s El Paso facility, expanding operations on both sides of the U.S./Mexico border.
President of Academy Operations | TBD
Overfly is seeking a mission-driven senior leader who knows how to build youth sports programs from the ground up. The ideal background includes serving as an Executive Director of a youth sports nonprofit, a Grant Administrator, or a Director of a parks and recreation baseball/softball division. This role will own the full academy operations playbook, from site-level execution to franchise scaling. Just as importantly, it will build a fundraising platform for grants and sponsorships so membership fees, equipment, and travel never leave an athlete behind.
Coaching Staff | On-Demand Expert Network
Overfly's coaching model is built differently, and it's one of the platform's biggest structural advantages. Credentialed coaches earn free facility access in exchange for running clinics, group lessons, and skill-development sessions, so elite instruction stays on the floor. That keeps labor costs fully variable and margins protected, while ensuring every athlete gets real coaching regardless of what their family can afford. Unused cage slots not booked within 24 hours go to student staff and volunteer coaches, keeping the facility active and the community engaged.
