About the Hit Zone
Co-owned and operated by Kelley Kirkland, softball industry heavy-hitter, and founder of the Carolina Hitting Academy, Kelley has been in business for 16 years. Before Carolina Hitting Academy, Kirkland played softball at the University of South Carolina and then went on to work as a Graduate Assistant at Florida State University. She has 3 College World Series appearances as a player and graduate assistant, which spring-boarded her into a position as the Head Softball Coach at Georgia Southern University and later to running her own hitting academy.
Athlete's Arena co-owners Jason Brunson and Shane Miller each have extensive resumes as elite athlete coaches and will manage the strength and conditioning division of The Hit Zone. Open since 2005, Athletes Arena has successfully coached and trained over 100 athletes who later signed on to play Division 1 sports.
This team is the perfect combination to build and train competitive baseball and softball players.
