Product Description:

Amazon.com Product Description: A small Doppler radar velocity sensor which attaches to a baseball or softball glove, the Sports Sensors Glove Radar measures the speed of a ball just before it is caught. By learning the proper way to condition, train, warm-up, and throw, players can achieve their best accuracy and velocity performance, while reducing the risks of injury to their arm and body. It can aid any player--infielders and outfielders, as well as pitchers and catchers--throwing from any distance.

The Glove Radar attaches easily to the back of any glove. | Packaged in a rugged plastic housing assembly and sealed to protect the internal electronics from dust, dirt and moisture, the Glove Radar is worn by the receiver of the ball, or by multiple tossing partners in non-game situations. It then responds to the approaching ball just before it reaches the glove. Thus, unlike most radar speed guns, a long range capability is not required.
Two screws hold the cover in place, which can be removed to replace the internal battery. A strong, weather-resistant nylon cord, facilitates attachment to virtually any ball glove. A rubber pad, molded onto the housing surface adjacent to the glove, absorbs impact shock forces from the ball being caught.
The internal electronics are in "sleep" mode until activated by depressing the push-button On switch. Upon receipt of a velocity signal produced by a ball about to be caught in the glove, the ball speed is calculated and shown on the display in miles-per-hour. The Glove Radar goes into the sleep mode after an inactivity period of about a minute. It's backed by a 6-month limited warranty. Made in USA.

I recently purchased a glove radar for my 10 and 13-year old sons at a discount from Amazon. The product is easy to use and works well. The mystery of our pitching speeds has now been solved. It's nice to have a unit that you can move from glove to glove, and get a handle on pitching speed without needing a third party to measure it. I would highly recommend this product to anyone wanting to track the speed of their pitches.

Have you ever used a jugs gun? If so then you have to get a glove radar! This little product is a powerhouse radar that attaches to the back of a ball glove. It is an affordable training tool that anyone can use. My daughter's softball team used it for training to improve their throwing technique. The pitcher loved it, but all of the other players would take a turn using it as well. My daughter, who is a catcher, used it to quantify her improvement as she was practicing her throw to second base. ... Read More

We have used our glove radar for several years. My husband coaches t-ball and I have helped in little league. When you coach players how to throw properly and give them immediate feedback on the speed of the ball, they listen and follow coaching instructions. The players are motivated to do as you have instructed, because they have a way to measure how well they throw the ball. The improvement we have seen in our players is the most incredible pace I have ever experienced. Other parents & coaches ... Read More

We purchased 2 of these units back in 2000, while making a run at the Little League World Series. We originally bought them to evaluate pitchers, however they were soon utilized by by all the players to evaluate and enhance their throwing positions. Although I have had to replace the batteries,(which Sport Sensors shipped for free), they still are in use today for the Cocoa Beach High School Varsity Team. As far as accuracy, we measured the units against Jugs Guns and they were on the money. Just remember ... Read More

I have been coaching youth baseball for nearly 10 years and I really like this product for training and gauging players' improvement. The Glove Radar is easy to use, affordable, and gives consistent and accurate speed readings. You have to understand that it measures the speed just before the ball enters the mitt, which is different than radar guns (the guns measure the ball speed close to the pitcher's/thrower's release point). Since a thrown ball's speed decreases about 1 mph for every 7 feet traveled the reading ... Read More
