  • The Ultimate Pitcher's and Catcher's Plate is a great visual target for pitchers to see the ideal locations to throw the ball to. It also positions the catcher in the correct place. The Plate is a simple tool to use and emphasizes what the best coaches in the world are teaching their pitchers and catchers: working the outside and inside corners.

    The Plate's orange edges are 5" wide on the top and 7" wide on the bottom front to serve as a visual target for the pitcher to see. The 5” orange edges and white part of the Plate cover the last 2½" of a traditional home plate and 2½” off of the plate (the outer limits of the strike zone). This Plate will effectively teach pitchers the 22" wide target - the entire strike zone - rather than just the 17" width of home plate.

    The Plate is very durable and lightweight, so it's easy to carry wherever you practice or play. Many youth leagues are permanently installing the Ultimate Plate in their bullpens, where the plate's added UV protection ensures long life outdoors.

     


    Multiple Uses for Fastpitch Players
    Ultimate Home Plate For Pitchers
    Teaches the importance of pitch location. The Plate is a great visual tool for the pitcher, who can easily see the ideal locations to throw to, helping them better understand where they should be throwing the ball.

    For Catchers
    The back part of the plate is to help position the catcher. She centers her body with the point of the white part of the plate on either corner to give the ideal target for the pitcher to throw to. Setting up on the corners creates great habits for the catcher by teaching them how to set up in the proper location.

    For Hitters
    Batters can work on inside and outside pitches. Also good for hitting drills, such as two strike hitting by expanding the zone. The Plate gives the hitter a better understanding of what the pitcher is trying to do.

    Plate Testimonials
    "Our pitchers love the visual aid it gives them and our catchers feel it helps them set up and lets them see what pitches are close enough to be framed. I would highly recommend the Pitcher's Plate."
      John Rittman - Stanford University, Head Softball Coach

    "Our team was among the first collegiate programs to use the Pitcher's Plate. Its impact was seen immediately. In my 20 years as a college coach, never have I had a better instructional tool for pitchers and catchers. The Pitcher's Plate gives pitchers a clear idea of where (and where not) to pitch. Catchers can easily develop good habits in regards to setting-up for pitches by using this marvelous instructional aid. We use it daily, and I recommend it to everyone."
      Scott Whitlock - Kennesaw State University, Head Softball Coach
