AllStar Mounds 6" Youth Baseball Portable Pitching Mound 2 - Allstar 2
The AllStar #2 Pitching Mound, was designed for practice & bullpen warm up but can be used for games for pitchers through age 10. As the games continue Allstar Mounds don’t develop holes & rough spots to distract the pitcher. This mound has a thin edge all around, so it lays almost even with the field and won’t move around while the pitcher is going through his motion. Change your softball fields into baseball fields in minutes with Allstar Mounds. No maintenance is required by the park staff while tournaments are taking place.
The AllStar #2 Mound is 53” wide x 75” long x 6” high where the pitcher stands in front of the pitching rubber. The distance between the pitching rubber & the front of the mound is 50” so most 10-year-old pitcher’s front foot should land on the mound and not in the dirt. The AllStar #2 Mound is a great pitching mound to get young kids trained for pitching on a mound.
AllStar Mounds offers a 3-year limited warranty on the fiberglass shell of the pitching mounds. (No warranty on turf.)

AllStar Pitching Mounds are made with a thin edge all around so the pitchers will not turn their ankle when stepping off the mound. Our thin edge also prevents the ball from making any bad bounces if it hits the edge. AllStar Mounds are concaved on the bottom so the edge all around lies tight to the ground, even if the field is not groomed well. Our pitching mounds will not curl up on the edges, even if they are stored standing all winter.
AllStar Mounds are great for games, bullpen warm-up and practice. All you need to do is carry the mound to the center of your field and instantly convert any softball field to baseball. Our portable pitching mounds can be moved forward and backward to make the field perfect for kids of different age groups.
