STEP UP TO BAT!

 

At the UK’s first Interactive batting cage & Sports Bar in Southampton!

👋 We’re 1st Base. You may have heard of us, but if not:

1st Base is the UK’s first interactive baseball batting cage, wrapped inside a buzzing American-style bar packed with games, food, and unbeatable vibes – setting us apart of one of the most unique experiences in Southampton.

Whether you’re planning a birthday, stag do, hen night, team social, family day out or just want to try something totally new with your mates – 1st Base brings the action.

More than just a night out!

At 1st Base, we’ve built something for everyone. You don’t need to be a baseball pro — the only requirement is a willingness to have fun. Our high-tech interactive batting cage is a hit with all ages (8 to 80!), and the rest of the venue is packed with fast-paced, competitive games like shuffleboard, ping-pong, basketball, and foosball. Whether you’re here for a quick session or planning a big group event, we’ve made sure every part of the experience is easy, exciting, and unforgettable.

The Activity

You have one job – step into the cage and smash that ball as hard as you can!

The ball is thrown towards you from our pitching machine and you simply have to hit the ball as best you can! Our system does the rest…

Suitable for ages 8+

No protective equipment required

Easy to learn and enjoy!

The Technology 

The smart technology tracks the trajectory of the ball after it leaves the bat. It measures velocity, launch angle and a whole host of other metrics.

Your hit is then shown on the big-screens as you compete on a virtual reality baseball field

Compete with friends, family and colleagues to see who can get the furthest hit – and maybe even hit a home run!
