Champro Optimus Select Plus Catcher's Set CBSN4J  

The Champro Optimus Select Plus Junior Catcher's Kit (CBSN4J) is a NOCSAE-certified complete three-piece catching gear set built for T-Ball and junior catchers who need a full head-to-shin protection system that meets the NOCSAE standard for Commotio Cordis (ND200-22), complies with NFHS rules, and features an integrated built-in left shoulder protector that sets the Optimus Select Plus Chest Protector apart from every other protector in the Champro lineup. The set includes the Cannon Catcher's Helmet, the Optimus Select Plus Chest Protector, and the Optimus MVP Leg Guards -- all sized for junior catchers with a medium helmet fitting hat sizes 6 1/4 to 7, a 13.5-inch chest protector with low-profile three-piece cardiac pad, one adjustable shoulder cap, and detachable groin protector, and 12-inch Optimus MVP leg guards. Available at SPC Sports in four colorways -- black, navy, royal, and scarlet.

The built-in left shoulder protector is the defining feature that distinguishes the Optimus Select Plus from every other chest protector in the Champro lineup -- by extending the left shoulder panel of the protector to cover the throwing shoulder, the CPN4 eliminates the gap between the top of the chest protector and the bottom of the helmet that standard protectors leave exposed, giving the youngest catchers integrated shoulder coverage without a separate shoulder extension or additional hardware from the very first game behind the plate.

The low-profile full chest width three-piece cardiac pad system delivers NOCSAE Commotio Cordis certification (ND200-22) in a low-profile design that sits closer to the body than traditional high-profile cardiac pad configurations -- providing the maximum available cardiac protection standard in a properly sized junior chest protector while maintaining the natural range of motion that the youngest catchers need to develop their catching mechanics without feeling constrained by bulky or restrictive gear.

The Cannon Catcher's Helmet delivers 10% greater peripheral vision than most traditional catcher's helmets through a hockey-style ABS shell with improved ventilation openings and optimized geometry, so T-Ball and junior catchers can track pitches, see runners, and develop their field awareness without the restricted field of view that narrower traditional designs create -- a meaningful advantage for the youngest players who are still building the spatial awareness and pitch-reading skills that catching demands.

The AirTech ventilation system creates active airflow channels that allow air to circulate through the interior of the helmet and escape through the shell during play, keeping the youngest catchers cooler and more comfortable through game days and practice sessions in warm weather without the heat buildup that non-ventilated designs retain against young heads.

The one adjustable shoulder cap included with the junior chest protector provides customizable coverage for the non-throwing shoulder, complementing the built-in left shoulder protection to give junior catchers coordinated shoulder coverage on both sides of the protector as they develop their athletic positioning and throwing mechanics behind the plate.

The detachable groin protector provides additional lower coverage for junior catchers and can be removed based on personal preference, league requirements, or individual comfort without affecting the performance of the main chest protector.

The Optimus MVP Leg Guards feature high-performance PE shin plate material that delivers improved flexibility and durability without any added weight -- allowing T-Ball and junior catchers to move in and out of the crouch and develop their footwork naturally without the leg guards restricting their developing movements or adding fatigue-inducing mass on the youngest players' legs.

The cantilever lining system in the leg guards minimizes impact transference to the shin by suspending the hard PE shell 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 beginning catchers from staying engaged with the position during their earliest seasons behind the plate.

This product comes with a 1 Year Manufacturer Warranty.
