Champion Sports BH71 4-Way Pitchers Box, Youth for the Mound
The Champion Sports BH71 is a youth 4-way pitchers box in heavy-duty rubber that rotates to use all four sides, so a worn edge is replaced by turning the box rather than buying a new one. At 18in by 4in by 4in it is the youth size, with inner support tubing for strength, for a baseball and softball youth mound.
The box design increases stability and the rotating sides extend its life, a durable youth alternative to a flat plate like the {a("80","80")}.

Heavy-Duty Mound Rubber
The BH71 is a heavy-duty rubber box with inner support tubing that rotates to present a fresh side as edges wear. The box shape adds stability for the pitcher push-off. It is the youth size; the pro model is the BH81 at 24in by 6in by 6in.
Anchoring and Removing the BH71
Set the box at the youth mound, confirm it is stable, and rotate to a fresh side when one wears. Pair it with the anchored {a("M501","M501 set")} and a {a("96","home plate")}.
Where It Fits by Field Type
| Field | Suitability | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Official game mound | Best | Regulation mound rubber |
| High school / league | Best | Heavy-duty rubber |
| Practice mound | Good | Removable for frequent use |
| Youth mound | Use youth size | Smaller mound rubber |
| Indoor bullpen | Good | Needs a soft surface |
| Home plate match | Use 96 | Waffle-bottom plate |
Equipping the Mound
For a groundskeeper, the BH71 completes a game mound and pairs with the rest of the diamond. Compare mound rubbers across the bases and home plates range and the baseball and softball collection.
Buyer and Field Workflow
Seat the BH71, confirm it is flush and level, and pull it before dragging the mound. Pair it with the anchored M501 set and a home plate so the diamond reorders together.
Who Buys This Rubber and Why
Athletic directors, groundskeepers, and leagues buy the BH71 as a mound rubber for game and practice play. Heavy-duty rubber survives push-offs and weather.
A field that needs a youth mounds is the clearest case, since the BH71 anchors firmly yet pulls for mound maintenance.
Choosing This Style vs Companions
| If you need | Reach for | Why |
|---|---|---|
| This mound rubber | BH71 | 4-Way Pitchers Box, Youth |
| An official three-spike plate | 80 | Heavy-duty rubber, three spikes |
| A two-spike plate | RP81 | Two metal spikes |
| A step-down rubber | BH82 | Reduces mound damage |
| A home plate | 96 | Waffle-bottom plate |
| A full base set | M501 | Welded-stanchion anchored set |
Expert Recommendation
Choose the BH71 for a youth mounds. For a three-spike official plate use the 80 plate, for the rest of the diamond build on the M501 set and match a 96 home plate.
Alternatives and Companion Styles
Companions: the 80 pitchers plate, the anchored M250 and welded M501 sets, the 96 home plate and 95 plate, and the 93 waffle base for practice.
What Sets the BH71 Apart

Care and Durability
Pull the rubber before dragging the mound and store it flat off-season. Heavy-duty rubber resists UV and weather; rinsing the spikes or anchor keeps it seating cleanly each game.
