Ball Machines

If you’re looking for a tennis ball machine that’s easy-to-use, yet still has the features of a professional machine, then Tennis Tower will be right at home on your court. And Tennis Tower’s uncomplicated, user-friendly design pays dividends in other areas too. No other ball machine has a better reputation for reliability. But don’t let its modest design fool you. Tennis Tower is a professional line of tennis ball machines that are both powerful and versatile. In fact, Tennis Tower is used by tennis pros at the Association of Tennis Professionals (ATP) Training Center in Ponte Vedra Beach, Florida. There are three Tennis Tower models available. Which means you can select the combination of features that best meets your needs.

The Competition Model #235

If you’re looking for a professional ball machine that’s as much at home on a home court as it is at a tennis club, the Competitor Model is tough to beat. The Competitor features an easy-to-use electronic control panel that puts every function at your fingertips. You can conveniently control ball speed trajectory, ball feed rate (the time interval between ball throws), and ball spin. Ball speed ranges from a gentle toss for children to world-class speed. Ball trajectory can be set anywhere between groundstroke and lob, while ball feed rate adjusts anywhere from 1-1/2 to 12 seconds. Ball spin is adjustable from heavy topspin to underspin, with a “flat” setting in the middle of the dial. That means you can easily duplicate the tennis shots you need to practice, from blistering groundstrokes to towering lobs. You can set Tennis Tower to repeat the same shot, or its built-in oscillator will direct shots randomly across the court. But we didn’t stop there. The Competitor includes several other distinctive features to further enhance user-friendliness. Features like four oversized caster wheels and a built-in handle for easy rolling on and off the court. A handy AC cord holder, and a start-up time delay that pauses ten seconds after you turn it on to give you ample time to get to your side of the net. Tennis Tower also features a big 250-ball capacity, and an exclusive anti-jam ball feeding mechanism.

Club Model #237

What do you get when you take all the advantages of the Competitor and add the convenience of a built-in two function wireless remote control? We call it the Club Model. The lightweight remote gives you fingertip control of both the ball feed and oscillator functions from anywhere on the court. At the press of a button, the remote lets you start and stop the ball delivery, and it also lets you set the oscillator to throw balls to any position on the court. Plus, you can even use it while it’s conveniently clipped to your waist with a handy waist clip.

The Professional Model #239

You don’t have to be a professional to appreciate the advantages of our Professional Model. The Professional Model includes a pre-programmed "2-line" function that allows a tennis instructor to shoot to two lines of students in a group lesson, or allows a single player to practice alternating forehand and backhand shots. It also includes a wireless remote just like the Club Model.

Tennis Tutor or Tennis Tutor Plus?

The compact size of the standard Tennis Tutor provides exceptional portability, while the taller Tennis Tutor Plus provides topspin and underspin capability. Which one is right for you? We believe that for most players the unmatched portability of the standard Tennis Tutor will provide the greatest benefit (especially if you have a small car trunk). Additionally, many teaching and playing professionals who use the standard Tennis Tutor have told us they prefer to practice against a flatly hit ball. Once a player has developed a solid, dependable stroke against a flat ball, he or she can easily adjust to variations in spin. However, if you play heavy topspin hitters regularly, or if you have a particular trouble against players who hit with a lot of spin, then a Tennis Tutor Plus may be the right choice for you.
