Softball Windscreen & Fence Toppers

Softball Field Maintenance - Windscreen & Safety Fence Toppers

Cimarron Sports carries a full selection of softball windscreen, fence toppers, and cage dividers to help coaches and facility managers build safer, more professional training environments. Windscreen is a simple but impactful upgrade — it cuts down on wind distraction for batters, adds privacy between practice areas, and gives any softball field an immediately polished look. Open mesh options work well for exposed outdoor fields where airflow matters, while closed mesh is ideal for batting cage dividers and enclosed facility applications. Standard sizing available for most outfield and dugout fence configurations. Need custom logo windscreen for your team or school?

What is softball field windscreen used for?

Softball windscreen attaches to outfield fences, dugout fencing, or batting cage frames to block wind, cut glare and visual distraction behind the batter's eye, and give a field a polished, finished look. It's a common upgrade for youth complexes, high school fields, and commercial training facilities alike. It also protects the fence itself, absorbing weather and wear that would otherwise land on chain link and hardware.

What's the difference between open mesh and closed mesh windscreen?

Open Mesh Polypropylene Windscreen allows more airflow through the fabric, making it the better choice for exposed fields with strong wind, where full coverage could create a sail effect on the fencing. Closed Mesh Polypropylene Windscreen blocks more wind and provides greater privacy — ideal for batting cage dividers, and anywhere a clean, solid hitting background matters.

Vinyl Coated Polyester Mesh Windscreen is the heaviest-duty option, built for commercial complexes and permanent installations where longevity under sun and weather is the priority.

How much windscreen do I need?

Windscreen is sold by the linear foot, so measure the total length of fencing to cover and note the fence height. Standard softball outfield fences run 4 to 6 feet tall. When in doubt, the Cimarron team can help calculate the right amount for a specific project.

How do I attach windscreen to a chain link fence?

Most windscreen installs using zip ties, bungee balls, or fence clips threaded through the fabric's grommeted edges — no special equipment required. Cimarron carries Fence Tie Wrap for securing panels evenly along a run, and the Fence-Top Installation Tool makes fitting capping along a long fence considerably faster.

What is fence top cap protection?

Exposed chain link top rail is one of the most common injury points on a softball field. The Chain Link Fence Topper, Fence Top Cap Protection, and Fence Top Cap Protection Lite cover that edge with padded capping, protecting players who go after a ball at the fence line.

Custom sizing, logos & installation

Yes. Fence runs are rarely a standard length, and Cimarron manufactures custom windscreen and netting to the dimensions of a specific field — including the Custom Batting Cage Divider Skirt for cage applications. Custom logo windscreen is also available for teams, schools, and training facilities looking to add branding.
