Softball Catchers Behind the Plate
A female athlete wears full catcher protective gear, including a face mask and chest protector, while holding her specialized softball mitt on the field. She prepares to take her position behind home plate for team defense practice.
The Role of the Catcher in Fastpitch Softball
Catchers call pitch selections using hand signals and must catch fastballs traveling up to sixty miles per hour in youth play. Their extra-thick mitts feature extra padding around the palm and fingers to absorb repetitive ball impacts throughout long innings. Because catchers squat continuously behind home plate, full leg guards protect their knees, shins, and ankles from foul tips.
