Ball-Launcher: First Class Delivery Guaranteed

From time to time, a product so innovative in its approach shakes an industry to its core.

The Ball-Launcher ‘Club Trainer’ is shaping up to be the most important development for football coaches and players in years.

Imagine a training ground machine that delivers every ball accurately, and at varying speeds and spins for players of all ages and abilities. The team at Ball-Launcher have made this a reality.

Managing Director Daniel Judge explained to The Non-League Paper Club Trainer’s origins.

He said: “Having regularly witnessed training sessions that were considered either worthwhile or not worthwhile dependent almost entirely on the quality and consistency of ball delivery, we set out to provide a practical and affordable solution for coaches that would take away this “hit or miss” element of coaching and make every training session count.”

Judge and his team were determined to eliminate the multiple hours of time wasted in training by poor delivery over the course of a season, but were aware that any machine they designed would have to be affordable even for smaller clubs struggling for cash.

The Ultimate Game Changer

And at £699+VAT they’ve certainly hit the mark. Following extensive market research involving over 1,000 players, clubs and coaches in the UK, product development spanning numerous prototypes and thousands of balls in testing, Club Trainer was born.

The team’s research established that only 1 in 10 balls arrive where they should in a normal training session.

With Ball-Launcher, “Every Ball Is A Good Ball”.

This machine can replicate almost any ball delivery found from grassroots to professional level including inswingers, outswingers, chips, dips and knuckleballs at speeds ranging from 5 to over 65 mph.

Working closely with non-league and grassroots academies, the team at Ball-Launcher have proven that quality of training can be enhanced to a level never seen before, and at a price that clubs’ sponsors would be comfortable with.

Prepare to change the way you train forever.

A Platform For Success

Challenges faced in training, such as inconsistent ball delivery and not having enough time in a session, can become a distant memory.

Coaches:

• Over 200 accurately delivered balls in one hour
• Four hours’ training condensed into one
• Ball speeds from 5 to over 65 mph
• Over six hours of battery life
• Utilise firing angles from -10 degrees up to 35 degrees.
• Weatherproof

Players:

• Hone first touch and ball control
• Perfect finishing and heading skills
• Consistent shots on target for goalkeepers

Club Trainer hones player core skills so that when matchday comes, the entire squad is prepared and confident to deliver that winning goal or clearance.

It’s like having a professional by your side at each training session.

Affordability and Quality Combined

Never before has such an affordable and quality solution existed that can help to validate team strategies. Lack of awareness, organisation and communication at set pieces can be consigned to the history books and Club Trainer can free coaches up to focus on improving teams and players, rather than delivering balls.

Judge is keen to point out how this product could specifically benefit non-league teams and the grass roots environment.

“Affordability for all clubs was our largest single challenge in our quest to successfully bring the Ball-Launcher ‘Club Trainer’ to market,” he said. “The usefulness of the product is without question for coaches. We have always believed that only the affordability criteria for smaller clubs would determine how quickly the product could become as common on training grounds up and down the country as goalposts, cones and gates are.”

The Essex based team at Ball-Launcher have extensive commercial, management and manufacturing experience and have just been officially recognised as one of the ‘top 50 innovative companies in Essex’.
