Equipment for the softball catcher

In softball, the player who plays the role of a catcher needs effective external protection against high-speed softball balls, which are quite large. The basic equipment of the catcher is, above all, a grille and helmet that effectively protect the player's face and head from injuries. In turn, the softball player is armed with a special chest protector, leg and knee protectors. Recently used, an interesting solution for catchers are pads placed under the thighs, which minimize the discomfort arising during a long squatting.
