HEAD SOFTBALL COACH, UNIVERSITY OF NORTH CAROLINA

“I’ve been using the Rogers® BreakAway™ Base since 2001 and have not had one injury since they were installed on our fields. Not only does it provide safety to my players, it also allows me to teach them proper sliding techniques without the worry of injury. I’ve been coaching for 23 years and in my opinion, Rogers® BreakAway™ Softball Bases are the best softball bases on the market – I endorse them 100%.”

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

WHAT SAFETY MANDATES ARE COMING NEXT SEASON?
Beginning in 2027, many leagues and governing bodies will require the use of Double First Bases to improve player safety at first base. These mandates are driven by injury-prevention efforts focused on reducing collisions between runners and fielders.
Player safety is the primary driver. On-field data and injury prevention research shows BreakAway Bases serve as a viable solution to minimize sliding injuries. Mandates and safety upgrades reflect a shift toward protecting athletes while maintaining the integrity of the game.
These bases are used across youth to the highest levels in the game – from recreational leagues, school and municipal fields, and competitive or tournament play. Each system is designed to meet durability and performance standards appropriate for its level of use.

Upgrading immediately may not be required, but many programs are choosing to transition early. Preparing ahead of the 2027 mandates allows leagues and facilities to spread out costs, avoid last-minute changes, and improve player safety sooner.

A Double First Base is designed specifically to reduce collisions at first base and is the base type being mandated for 2027 compliance.
A Breakaway Base is engineered to release on impact to help reduce lower-body injuries during slides and collisions. Breakaway bases focus on overall player safety and are widely adopted across all levels of play, even when not mandated.
Both options are safety-driven but serve different purposes on the field.
