FlatGround Bats facilities, please feel free to add your facility to this, if you agree to give hitters metrics/video for free.
This doc should be editable (unless I messed up). Don't change anyone else's info--it's for adding your facility only!

Who provides the best hitting content on X? We want to sponsor somebody chosen by the community. Any ideas who'd be a great hitting content provider with FG? Someone who can offer a quality education to recruits.

In fairness, to rank you, they DO need to see you. And PG's model is their scouts generally see players at PG's events.
Flatground is just a different model...putting the power in the player's hands.
