Pocket Radar Ball Coach radar gun 6.5 x 5 x 2 in — handheld ball speed meter, 25–130 mph range, ±1 mph accuracy

Pocket Radar Ball Coach is a compact, pro-level radar gun that records the peak speed of balls in flight for baseball, softball, tennis, volleyball, hockey and other sports.

Designed for coaches, trainers and self-directed athletes, the Ball Coach delivers instant speed readings with pro-grade accuracy in a handheld package (6.5 x 5 x 2 inches). It captures the fastest velocity of a moving ball, stores recent results, and ships with a rugged Koah weatherproof case with customizable foam so the unit stays protected between sessions. The unit operates simply with two AAA batteries and a trigger-style control that removes timing guesswork from training.

How does the Ball Coach record ball speed without complex setup?

The Ball Coach uses an automatic trigger system: hold the button down before the ball is in motion and release once the displayed speed appears. This method avoids stopwatch timing or specialized mounts, letting users focus on technique while the device detects peak velocity during flight.

• Fully automatic triggering and a Constant‑On Mode for hands‑free measurement.
• Peak-speed capture finds the fastest reading from one pass or pitch.
• Simple trigger button eliminates timing precision requirements.
• Compact form factor fits into a pocket, glove bag, or case for quick access.

What accuracy and range can I expect when measuring pitches or serves?

The Ball Coach reports speeds from 25 to 130 mph with professional-level accuracy, letting players and coaches track real improvements session to session. On a typical baseball or softball trajectory you can expect valid readings from about 120 feet of distance, while accuracy is rated to within +/- 1 mph (+/- 2 kph).

• Measurement range: 25–130 mph to cover youth through elite play.
• Accuracy: +/- 1 mph provides repeatable benchmark data.
• Typical effective range on a baseball/softball: up to 120 feet.
• Units display fast, letting you record multiple reps quickly.

What’s included and how does the protective case add value?
