Outfield glove

Best outfield pattern for a glove?

And then maybe a specific recommendation, if you have one?

Best pattern?? Subjective but I like a true Six-finger trap web glove best!

Age, and level of play / ability?

For a 10 year old I’d take a look at this 12” Gamer exclusive from CloseoutBats. Call them and see if they’ll re-lace the wrist button lap to the smallest / tightest setting before they ship it?

I'm partial to a 12.5" Modified Trap.

I have done a few swaps where I take the Wilson A2000 V125 and swap out the solid V web for a modified trap.

I liked Traps and Mod Traps while playing baseball, they're lightweight, you can track the ball wile looking through the web and they look good. I see no reason why that wouldn't apply to softballView attachment 23386

Just my experience and what I've seen through the years, a 12.5" glove is just too big for a 10 year old, unless she's a giant!

Agreed...My DD is about to turn 11 in September and for the last 2 years has been using a 12" Bradley Bandito H-Web everywhere on the field (except C) and it's been a great utility size/pattern. We're moving up to 12U this fall and she's not having any issues with the bigger ball either.

If your DD is not small for her age and just going to play OF, she could probably get away with a 12.5 inch glove, though.

I've been looking for an OF glove for my daughter whose going to be a freshman in college. She's 5'3" with small hands. There's just nothing out there in 13" or even 12.75". We've got a 12.75" A2000 custom glove ready but Wilson says their A2000 factory is on indefinite shutdown due to Covid.
