Winter Workouts Are Here! Here’s the Lowdown for the 2025 Sessions!
Happy New Year! We hope you had a wonderful holiday season capped off with a pleasant New Year’s celebration with family and friends. Now that 2025 has finally arrived, OYO is ready to kick off our programs for the year, too! And this starts with the Winter Workouts you registered your ballplayer for this winter.
To get you ready for the workouts at the Indiana Grind Academy, which begin tomorrow — January 4, 2025 — for most age groups, here are some FAQs. Of course, if you have any additional questions or need something more, less or different before the workouts begin, then just let us know.

Where is the Indiana Grind Academy located?
The host facility is located in Beech Grove, less than a mile from the I-465/Emerson Avenue exit. The facility’s address is 5602 Elmwood Ave Suite 201, Indianapolis, IN 46203. For some quick tips, here are some notes:
- After exiting the interstate, turn right to go to first stoplight at Elmwood Avenue
- Turn right on Elmwood Avenue and drive past Royal Pin Expo Bowl and Great Times Family Fun Park (on your right), then past Public Storage (also on the right)
- Turn left into business complex
- Indiana Grind Academy is located in last row of buildings and first door closest to main road (Elmwood Avenue)
How should players dress for the workouts?
Players should wear clothers they would normally wear to a team practice. We recommend baseball/softball pants or sweat pants and a couple layers on top. Depending on the time of day, the facility can be a little chilly but as it warms up, your ballplayer may be more comfortable wearing a layer or two less.
What equipment does my ballplayer need and what should they wear?
We are asking every player to have their own helmet, bat and glove. In addition, your ballplayers should wear indoor practice attire and tennis shoes or turf shoes. No cleats are permitted.
How will the sessions be facilitated?
All our sessions will be hosted by veteran OYO coaches. All sessions will be customized for each age group, and individual volunteer instructors will help players execute the drills being taught at the workouts.
Got Questions?
If you have any questions or need additional feedback or insight, then please email us and we’ll be sure to provide the information or support you and your ballplayer need!
