POP Athletics, co-founded by former Texas Rangers pitcher Shawn Tolleson, has quickly become a hub for advanced baseball training in Allen, Texas. With a vision to provide a high-end, elite training facility, the team at
POP Athletics knew they needed premium equipment to match their aspirations. That’s where True Pitch came in.
True Pitch worked closely with Tolleson and his team to supply pitching mounds tailored to their specific needs, ensuring the facility could serve athletes ranging from youth players to professionals.
“True Pitch has been instrumental in helping us create the best possible pitching environment,” Tolleson shared. “We use the 1010 mounds for our more permanent pitching lanes. These mounds are durable, stable, and provide the realistic throwing experience that our college and professional athletes need. Everyone loves throwing off of them.”
In addition to the 1010, POP Athletics incorporated True Pitch’s innovative BP2 mounds, a more portable option designed for versatility and younger players. Tolleson says these mounds have been perfect for the facility.
“The BP2 mounds have been a game-changer for us. We can move them around easily, use them for younger pitchers at shorter distances, and even set them up against walls for specific training drills,” Tolleson says. “They’ve doubled our capacity for classes and allowed us to serve more athletes efficiently.”
True Pitch owner Greg Goeders says his team is always ready to jump in to ensure facilities like POP Athletics have what they need to be successful.
“We take pride in working directly with facility owners to identify the right products for their needs,” Goeders says. “From providing realistic, professional-grade mounds to designing portable solutions like the BP2, we aim to help facilities run smoothly and meet the demands of players at every level.”
The partnership between True Pitch and POP Athletics exemplifies how innovative equipment can enhance training environments. With the combination of the 1010 and BP2 mounds, POP Athletics has created a versatile, efficient space that caters to the needs of their wide-ranging clientele, from seven-year-olds learning to pitch to professionals refining their mechanics.
