The Mizuno RunBird® Catcher's Knee Wedge takes the strain out of long innings behind the plate. Designed to comfortably support the knee while crouching, it helps catchers stay lower longer and recover faster by reducing the discomfort of prolonged squatting through doubleheaders and tournament weekends.

Key features & specs

• Anatomical, pre-curved design that fits the natural crouch
• Memory foam padding for targeted, lasting comfort
• Breathable DryLite® lining that wicks moisture away
• Lightweight, low-profile fit that stays out of the way
• Available in Small and Large

Best for: baseball and fastpitch catchers at every level. The wedge slips on and off in seconds, so catchers can wear it for warm-ups and bullpen work and remove it for game action without fuss, and its low-profile shape keeps weight down without interfering with shin guards. Usage tip: position the wedge behind the knee and calf for support during bullpen sessions and games. Care: hand wash with mild soap and air dry to protect the foam and lining.

The Spalding All Weather Basketball Net is engineered to survive the elements year-round. Built from UV-resistant, weather-proof material, it shrugs off sun, rain, and cold that quickly destroy standard nylon nets — making it the smart choice for outdoor courts, playgrounds, and any rim exposed to the seasons. It fits standard rims and keeps that clean, true swish long after ordinary nets have frayed and faded.

Key features & specs

• UV-resistant, weather-proof construction for year-round outdoor durability
• Resists sun fade, rain, and cold-weather brittleness
• Fits standard basketball rims
• Delivers a consistent, satisfying swish on made baskets
• Available in White and Red/White/Blue

Coach's tip: This is the net to install on exposed outdoor and rooftop courts where standard nylon won't last a season. Attach all loops evenly so the net hangs straight and wears uniformly, and even weather-proof nets benefit from a periodic inspection — replace before any strand frays fully through so the rim always looks and plays its best.

The Spalding Heavy Duty Basketball Net is built to last the whole season and then some. Made from durable, thick nylon, it stands up to constant makes, weather, and rough outdoor play far better than the thin nets that ship with most hoops. It fits all standard 12-loop goals, making it a simple, affordable upgrade for gyms, driveways, and institutional courts that want a crisp swish on every made shot.

Key features & specs

• Thick, durable nylon construction for extended service life
• Fits all standard 12-loop rims
• Delivers a satisfying, true "swish" on made baskets
• Holds up to heavy indoor and outdoor use
• Available in White, Red/White/Blue, and team colors

Coach's tip: Buy a few extras at the start of the season so a worn or vandalized net never sidelines a court. Attach all 12 loops evenly so the net hangs straight and wears uniformly, and choose team colors to add a finished, program-proud look to your home gym. For outdoor rims, inspect the net periodically and replace it before it frays through.

The Spalding Inflating Needle is the small part that keeps every ball in play. Precision-made to fit all standard pumps and any ball with a standard inflation valve, these needles are the single most-lost piece of equipment in any gym — so having spares on hand means a flat ball is never a reason to stop practice. Buy them individually to replace a bent or missing needle, or grab the 10-pack to keep the whole program covered all season.

Key features & specs

• Fits all standard hand and electric pumps
• Works with any ball that uses a standard inflation valve
• Durable metal construction resists bending
• Available individually or in a convenient 10-pack
• An essential, low-cost backup for coaches and equipment managers

Coach's tip: Always moisten the needle with water or a drop of saliva before inserting it — a dry needle can crack the ball's valve and cause slow leaks. Insert it straight, not at an angle, to avoid bending, and stash a few spares in your ball bag, pump case, and equipment room so you're never caught short on game day.

Keep every ball on the rack game-ready with a Spalding Basketball Pump. Whether you're topping off a single ball before practice or inflating a full cart at the start of the season, these dependable hand pumps move air quickly and reliably. Dual-action models push air on both the push and the pull for faster inflation, so coaches and equipment managers spend less time pumping and more time running practice. Compatible with standard inflation needles, they work with basketballs, footballs, soccer balls, volleyballs, and more.

Key features & specs

• Dual-action pumps available in 6", 8", and 12" sizes for fast, efficient inflation
• Single-action 12" option available for steady, controlled pumping
• Compatible with all standard inflation needles
• Works with any ball that uses a standard inflation valve
• Durable construction built for daily athletic-program use

Coach's tip: Choose a larger dual-action pump for high-volume days when you're inflating carts of balls, and keep spare needles on hand since they're the part most often lost or bent. Moisten the needle before inserting it to protect the ball's valve, and store the pump indoors to keep the seals working smoothly.

Spalding basketball rims are built to take a beating and keep hanging true — the right replacement or upgrade for driveways, gyms, and institutional programs alike. From the spring-loaded Pro Image and Arena Slam breakaway rims engineered for hard, competitive play to the fixed Slam Jam and Standard rims for recreational hoops, there's a Spalding rim to match every backboard and level of play. Durable steel construction and proven Spalding hardware mean dependable rebounds season after season.

Key features & specs

• Available in Pro Image, Arena Slam Breakaway, Pro Slam, Slam Jam, and Standard styles
• Breakaway models feature spring-loaded flex to protect the rim and backboard during aggressive play
• Heavy-gauge steel construction for long-lasting durability
• Offered in Orange, Red, and Black finishes
• Ideal as a replacement rim or a performance upgrade for existing systems

Coach's tip: Choose a breakaway rim (Pro Image or Arena Slam) for players who dunk or hang, and match the rim's mounting pattern to your backboard before ordering. Check net loops and mounting bolts for tightness each season, and wipe the rim down periodically to slow rust on outdoor installations.

The Champro Umpire Kit bundles three field essentials every plate and base umpire needs into one convenient package, so new officials can gear up in a single purchase and veterans can restock the basics without hunting down individual pieces. It combines a ball bag, a lineup brush, and an indicator — the everyday tools of the trade.

Key features & specs:

• Includes the Champro A045 umpire ball bag, available in black or navy to match your crew uniform
• Includes the Champro A040 wooden umpire brush for clearing the plate
• Includes the Champro A048 four-dial optic-yellow umpire indicator for tracking balls, strikes, outs, and innings
• Optic-yellow indicator dials stay easy to read at a glance in any light
• Everything needed to work behind the plate or on the bases in one kit

Coach's tip: Keep the indicator in your non-throwing hand and reset it between innings so your count is always accurate. Store the brush and bag together in your gear bag between games, and wipe the ball bag down after dusty or wet outings to keep the material clean and ready for the next assignment.

All-Star KS3 Knee Savers attach to the straps of a catcher's shin guards and tilt the crouch to a more supportive angle, reducing the strain that builds up in the knees and legs over a long game behind the plate. Catchers at every level — from youth through the pros — use them to fight late-game fatigue, protect their joints, and extend their careers. For programs that ask a catcher to work back-to-back games or a full doubleheader, they're an inexpensive way to keep that athlete fresh and healthy.

Key features & specs:

• Adult-size knee savers (model KS3)
• Attach directly to existing shin-guard straps
• Support the crouch angle to reduce knee and leg fatigue
• Help preserve joints over long innings and multiple games
• Available in five colors to match team gear

Coach's tip: Position them so the catcher can still pop up quickly to throw — they should relieve fatigue without locking the stance. Care: Wipe clean with a damp cloth, check the strap attachment periodically, and re-secure if they loosen during play.

The Blazer Mesh Shot Put/Discus Carrier keeps a throws program's implements organized and easy to haul from the equipment room to the ring. Blazer offers several carrier styles so coaches can pick the capacity and features that fit their squad — from simple two-implement bags to heavy netting that holds a full team's worth of shots and discs. Every option is built from tough, reinforced materials that stand up to the weight and abuse of iron shots and metal-rimmed discs.

• Mesh Shot Put Carrier: heavy woven polyethylene rope construction
• Discus/Shot Put Carrier: reinforced nylon bag with a sturdy handle, holds 2 shots or 2 discus
• Carrier with Shoulder Strap: reinforced nylon with handle plus shoulder strap, holds 2 shots or 2 discus
• Two Shot Carrier: heavy all-black vinyl bag, snap closure plus side zipper, removable shoulder strap
• Multi Shot/Discus Carrier: heavy nylon netting for multiple shots and discus (red handle, blue bag)

Coach's tip: choose the two-implement bags for individual athletes and the multi/netting carriers for team transport, and confirm the style and capacity before ordering. Empty out grit and let the carrier dry before storage so it lasts season after season.
