Champro Optimus MVP Double Knee Leg Guard CG111  

The Champro Optimus MVP Double Knee Junior Leg Guard (CG111) is a 12-inch T-Ball and junior catcher's leg guard built for the youngest players at every level of baseball and softball who need maximum lower leg coverage with a double knee cap design properly sized for the smallest frames behind the plate. The high-performance PE shin plate delivers improved flexibility and durability without added weight, vent holes keep airflow moving through the guard during play, and the cantilever lining system minimizes the impact transferred to the shin on every ball contact. Sold as a pair in four colorways at SPC Sports -- black, navy, royal, and scarlet.

The high-performance polyethylene shin plate delivers superior flexibility compared to rigid plastic shell designs so the guard follows the natural movement of the lower leg through every crouch, block, and developing catching movement without restricting the mobility that young players need to learn proper technique, while the material's inherent durability resists cracking, deforming, and breaking down under youth practice and game use across a full season.

The double knee cap design provides two layers of knee coverage at the primary contact surface where the youngest catchers make ground contact during blocking positions and take ball contact during crouching play -- giving T-Ball and junior catchers the additional cushioning and impact distribution at the knee that helps the youngest players develop confidence in their blocking and catching mechanics without the discomfort of inadequately protected knee contact during the earliest stages of learning the position.

The cantilever lining system minimizes impact transference to the shin by suspending the hard PE shell slightly away from the leg on the impact side, creating a buffer layer that absorbs and disperses ball contact forces before they reach the shin -- protecting the youngest catchers from the sting and bruising of direct shin contact that can discourage T-Ball and junior players from staying engaged in the catching position during their first seasons behind the plate.

Vent holes in the shin plate allow airflow to circulate through the guard during active play, releasing heat from the contact surface between the guard and the lower leg so the youngest catchers stay cooler and more comfortable through game days and practice sessions without the heat buildup that solid-shell designs retain against the leg.

The 12-inch junior shin length is the smallest size in the Optimus MVP Double Knee lineup, providing the appropriate coverage from knee to ankle for T-Ball and junior catchers whose legs are too short for larger youth sizing -- giving the youngest players a properly fitted leg guard that sits in the correct anatomical position without gaps or misalignment during their first seasons developing behind the plate.

At 1.78 lbs per pair the CG111 is the lightest leg guard in the Optimus MVP Double Knee lineup, specifically weighted for the smallest frames in T-Ball and junior programs so the guards never feel heavy, overwhelming, or fatiguing on the youngest players' legs -- keeping them comfortable, mobile, and excited to learn the catching position from their very first game behind the dish.

FAQ

What age and size is the CG111 designed for? The CG111 is the 12-inch junior size -- the smallest in the Optimus MVP Double Knee lineup -- designed for T-Ball and junior catchers whose legs are too short for standard 13.5-inch youth sizing, making it the right choice for the youngest players in organized baseball and softball programs stepping behind the plate for the very first time.

How does the CG111 Junior differ from the CG106 Youth? Both share the same high-performance PE shin plate, cantilever lining system, vent holes, and double knee cap design. The CG111 is 12 inches for T-Ball and junior players at 1.78 lbs per pair -- the smallest and lightest in the double knee lineup -- while the CG106 is 13.5 inches for standard youth catchers at 1.91 lbs per pair. Choose the CG111 for the youngest players whose shin length falls within the junior size range.

What is the cantilever lining system? The cantilever lining system suspends the hard PE shin plate slightly away from the leg on the impact side, creating a buffer layer that absorbs and disperses ball contact forces before they reach the shin -- protecting young catchers from the sting and bruising of direct shin contact during the earliest stages of learning the catching position.
