Elite Series and Grand Series Battery Ball Machines
The Elite Series line of battery ball machines was designed from its inception to fulfill two market needs – a ballmachine that challenges all levels of play, not just beginners and a ball machine that will reflect our commitmentto quality products. Most battery ball machines have batteries that last 1-2 hours. This fact leads manufacturers toget away with building poor quality machines. The Elite Series was developed to be durable first and a better mousetrap second.
The Elite’s standard battery provides the player with 4-8 hours of court time with an ergonomically designed foldinghandle and oversized wheels that allow for easy transportation with a full hopper over any surface, even steps.Also, the Elite’s 80 mph groundstrokes, full corner-to-corner random oscillation, unrivaled, sky-high lobs and heavytopspin and backspin will test advanced players to beginners alike. By challenging such a wide range of players fromsmall children, beginners, to advanced players, and professional instructors the Lobster Elite Series and GrandSeries will continually challenge any player as their game grows.
The Elite & Grand Series Advantage
The Lobster Sports Elite Series models are a revolution in battery-powered tennis ball machines. Our team ofmechanical, industrial and electrical engineers continue to enhance our patent-pending designs to eliminate thecompetition. Here’s how.
- Programmability: The Grand V and Grand V LE allow you to program your own custom court drills and store them inmemory, a feature not found on any other portable tennis ball machines.
- Fully Random: The Grand IV, Grand V, and Grand V LE provide unrivalled match play simulation by incorporating fullrandom oscillation, while mixing up both the speed and the spin.
- Pre-Programmed Drills: Preparing you to play the competition, the Grand IV is equipped with six pre-programmedsix-shot drills simulating the most popular styles of play, while the Grand V and Grand V LE include six additionaldrills for maximum performance development.
- True corner-to-corner oscillation: The Elite 2 with its unsurpassed triple-oscillation will keep you on the move asballs are thrown throughout the entire court. The Elite 3 adds a two-line setting for unequalled match playincorporating varying depths while practicing forehands, backhands, lobs, and volleys. A built-in indicator ensuresballs actually hit the corners, simulating true match play.
- Fastest and slowest speed: Elites can deliver at 80 miles per hour (that’s 10-15% faster than the competition) or bereduced to as little as 20 mph. Other machines top out at 65 mph and offer a minimum speed, which may be unsuitablefor the smallest family members and beginners. See how the economic Elite Freedom and Elite 1 base model deliversthe ball compared to the competition.
- Heaviest spin: A top spin designed to bounce to a string-breaking shoulder-height and a slice that’ll challenge youlike a touring pro. Mastery of top and back spins is what separates the average player from a champion!
- 50 and 60 degree lobs: Our powerful overhead lobs are twice as high as other ball machines that typically are 30degrees or less. Professionals skilled at lobs dominate the court. Master this little-practiced stroke.
- Six spot random sweep: Be challenged by a sweep that strikes an unparalleled random six spots on the court. Manycompetitors’ ball machines are limited to three or four spots.

- Extreme portability: Our Elite models transport over all surfaces, including stairs, gravel, and grass, withouteasily tipping over. Compare our 8-inch wheels to our competitor’s 1-inch castors or machines that must be placed ontheir sides to roll, as well as our ergonomically designed 3-foot handle to their 6-inch handles. Easily manage our36-44 pounds’ machines that fit easily in the trunk, making it a single trip from the car to the court.
- Single long-life large battery: The competition’s 2 smaller batteries can’t match our 4 ½-hour to 8-hour play timebefore recharging. The Elite won’t quit before you’re ready to stop!
