Hockey Style Catchers Mask
The two options for a face mask for a catcher are the traditional two piece mask or the hockey style catchers mask. As one of the most crucial defensive players, a baseball catcher is responsible for calling pitches and protecting home plate. The catcher is at the distinct advantage of being the only player who can see the entire field. Because of the position directly behind home plate, the baseball catcher is at the highest risk of injury. The right equipment is crucial to protect the catcher from errant balls, home plate collisions, and wild swings. As more research has come out in recent years, the hockey style catchers mask has become a popular choice over the two-piece style. The rise in usage of this style across all age groups is due to the newest designs and their safety features.
Hockey Style Advantages
Although the hockey style catchers mask is more expensive than other options, there are many advantages to consider, including:
- Better vision compared to the traditional two-piece mask. This is especially important since the catcher is the only defensive position with the vision of the whole diamond.
- Maximum stability because the mask does not move during collisions or when turning to throw the ball.
- Superior protection covering the entire face, jaw, and back of the head. The two-piece style leaves the sides and back of the neck exposed and at risk of injury.
- User-friendly design makes it easier to put on and take off than a traditional mask, which often requires two hands.
The hockey style catchers mask is available in a variety of sizes, styles, colors and price points. It is crucial to purchase the right size and not buy gear that is too big. These masks are from some of the most popular sporting goods companies, including All Star, Easton, Rawlings, Under Armour, Mizuno and Wilson. Check out the full selection below.
