My son used to borrow the batting cage key during lunch while still playing basketball and lifted weights with the football team before school.  Not sure if he was breaking any rules in CA but the AD/basketball coach didn't seem bothered by it. 

 

btw, if he is a position player, a lot can be done with just a tee and net.  i.e. hit into net and throw into net.

Around us HS sports seasons are strictly limited.  Coaches get around the limitations by holding "open" gyms.  The kids are basically "on their own" (ie; no practice plan) but expected to do the work.  So in our case twice a week, early AM they get to the gym and long toss.  They also lift in the afternoons and have speed/agility.  By rule (don't know whose rule), you cannot participate if you play another high school sport.   But you can workout with your club team until the season starts, which he does.
