A first-class training home in the heart of Detroit
Michigan Heavy Hitters Sports provides sports training and development for athletes in the City of Detroit and surrounding communities. We offer a first class and safe training experience for our athletes and families.
Our team offers sports training and development specific to speed, agility, strength, and conditioning — plus sport-specific work in baseball, softball, basketball, and golf. Training comes in 1-on-1, small group (4–6), camps, and clinics.
Our facility is located at 5251 East Outer Drive, Detroit, Michigan 48234 — we believe it's the best training location in the city.
Coach Brian C. Brunson — Founder
Coach Brian brings 15 years of baseball training experience and 20+ years coaching basketball to Michigan Heavy Hitters Sports — all rooted in the Detroit area.
He founded Michigan Heavy Hitters Sports (2012–2017) as a year-round program at the Jackie Robinson Sports Complex, training athletes ages 7 through college. From 2017–2025, Heavy Hitters served Houston and surrounding communities.
Now Heavy Hitters has returned home to Detroit, ready to develop the next generation of athletes with individual training, camps, and clinics backed by professional coaching support.

What Detroit families are saying
"Best coach ever. He got through to my child and he now understands. He taught drills that build conditioning and basic baseball skills — and kept at it until my child understood. I am extremely grateful and highly recommend."
"My son's swing mechanics improved in just two sessions. Coach Brian breaks everything down so the kids actually understand the why behind every drill. The facility is clean, organized, and feels like a real training home."
"The softball training here gave me confidence at the plate I never had before. We worked on pitch recognition, footwork, and power. I went from sitting the bench to starting third base."
"I bring my AAU team to Michigan Heavy Hitters for off-season work. The cage and court rentals are affordable, and Coach Brian knows how to keep a group of teenagers locked in and working hard."
"Basketball training is no joke here. We worked on ball handling, finishing through contact, and defensive slides. You leave every session tired, but you see the improvement fast."
"The golf simulator is a hidden gem in Detroit. My daughter can practice her swing year-round without driving across the city. The data feedback helps her coach adjust her form every session."
