Rainbow DurabiliTee Batting Tee

Get long-lasting equipment for your tee ball unit that will hold up to years of institutional use. A reinforced base piece on the ball tee eliminates cracking, while virgin rubber construction provides outstanding durability even when left outdoors. Adjust the height of the tee anywhere from 20" to 36"H.

Long-Lasting Design

Heavy-duty virgin rubber construction stands up to water and sunlight without becoming hard and brittle. The tee's reinforced neck connection makes the tee last longer, while also preventing breaks from occurring at the base. While smooth bottom tees can slide during use, the grate bottom on these tees keeps them stable on all surfaces.

Easy to Set Up

To set the tee up, simply insert the tee into the connector on the base. The tee then easily slides into place, and does not need to be bolted in. The textured tube ensures that when the tee is at its desired height, it stays put and does not sink. Adjust the tee from 20" to 36"H.

This is the only tee set we offer that features Rainbow colors. Tee base measures 17"L x 17"W; 11 lb.

Activity Ideas Using the Rainbow DuraBiliTee Batting Tee

The Rainbow DuraBiliTee Batting Tee is an ultra-durable batting tee that features a reinforced rubber construction and a flexible, adjustable stem designed to withstand consistent use by players of all levels. Its color-coded tees allow for group organization, skill rotation, or station-based learning. In physical education, this product is ideal not just for batting practice, but also for teaching a wide variety of fundamental movement skills—especially manipulative, locomotor, and coordination skills. Below are 15 imaginative and skill-based activities that use the DuraBiliTee to develop physical literacy in students of all ages.

1. Tee Time Tag - Twists and Turns: Set up several DuraBiliTee tees across the gym, each with a foam ball. Students must run in a designated pattern, stop at a tee, twist their torso to hit the ball off the tee with a foam paddle, then twist back and run to the next station. This develops twisting, turning, and running skills.

2. Rainbow Round-Up - Color Chase Challenge: Assign each color-coded tee to a team. Place a matching color poly spot at various distances. Students run to the spot, perform a hop or leap, then return to their tee and strike the ball. Focus: color recognition, hopping, leaping, and striking.

3. DuraBlast Derby: Students rotate through tees and attempt to hit foam balls off the tee using a lightweight bat. Measure distance with cones and encourage students to beat their previous mark. Focuses on striking, power generation, and coordination.

4. Tee Toss Target Practice: Instead of hitting, students toss a beanbag toward a ball placed on top of the DuraBiliTee. If they knock the ball off, they score. Works on throwing, aiming, and hand-eye coordination.

5. Rainbow Run Relay: Teams line up and run to a DuraBiliTee station, strike a ball, then run back and tag the next teammate. Develops running, striking, and teamwork.

6. Tee Swing Freeze: Play music while students move around the gym. When music stops, they freeze, then find the nearest tee and perform a balanced strike. Focus: stopping, balancing, striking.

7. Color Code Coordination: Set colored tees with different tasks (e.g., red = one-foot balance before swing, blue = spin before swing). Students rotate and follow each challenge. Develops coordination, balance, and striking.

8. Power Plant Tee Smash: Have students attempt to hit the ball off the tee as far as they can using an oversized bat. This encourages power movement and striking accuracy.

9. Leap & Launch: Students must perform a leap before stepping up to the tee to strike. Develops leaping, sequencing, and timing.

10. Tee Time Tango: Pair students; one student strikes, and the other mimics dance steps while retrieving the ball. Fun coordination and rhythmic movement focus.

11. Zone Smash Showdown: Assign point zones on a wall. Students aim their strike to hit balls toward specific zones. Teaches aiming, striking, and strategic planning.

12. Tee It Up & Track It: Have students hit a ball and then chase it, trying to catch it before it stops rolling. Builds striking, reaction time, and running.

13. Swing Switch Scramble: After hitting, students switch tees (and hands—if possible) for the next round. Builds ambidexterity and locomotor speed.

14. Silly Strikes Station: Create funny challenges: hit while hopping, spinning, or swaying. Students get creative while developing non-locomotor control and striking skills.

15. Reactive Rainbow Rally: Call out a tee color, and students must run to that tee, strike the ball, and sprint to a finish line. Reinforces agility, decision-making, and reaction time.
