Default Indoor Batting Cage??

So, with pitchers and catchers reporting to Spring Training this week I realized I want to drag myself to a batting cage. Anyone know of any indoor batting cages in Calgary? I have never heard of any and couldn't track any down in the Yellow Pages.

There was one at a place in the ATCO business park, a whole inside baseball facility... I think it was called The Infield... but I haven't been there in over a decade.

That's the Cage Batting Range, just south of 16th Ave and Home road in the NW. But it's an outdoor batting cage, closed for winter, usually opens around the end of March (depending on the weather).

Great place to swing off the rust though once Spring officially arrives.

That one moved to another place off barlow and has since closed. Like Rubecube said, National Sports Development has one and I believe it is the only one left in Calgary if you are looking for indoors.

I've never actually been there.
