The Fisher Athletic Varsity Foul Pole is built for regulation baseball and softball fields that demand durable, highly visible foul line markers. Rising 17 feet above the ground for a total length of 21 feet, each pole is constructed from Schedule 40 pipe with a 3.5" outer diameter and a 0.216" wall thickness - engineered for long-term stability and resistance to field-level wear. The 8' x 24" metal mesh screen ensures players, coaches, and umpires can track fly balls and line drives with clarity from any angle.
Shipped primed and ready to paint, these poles arrive ready to match your team colors or facility branding. Sold in pairs, they provide everything needed to properly mark both foul lines on a single field, with optional ground sleeves available for a secure, permanent installation.

FAQ
Are ground sleeves included with the foul poles?
Ground sleeves are not included but are available as an optional add-on (model FP20GS, sold individually). Ground sleeves allow for a permanent, secure installation and are recommended for fields with a fixed infield layout. Contact us if you'd like to add them to your order.
What paint should I use on the primed poles?
The poles are shipped primed and ready to accept most standard exterior metal paints. A rust-inhibiting enamel or direct-to-metal (DTM) paint is recommended for outdoor use to ensure the finish holds up against weather and UV exposure. Yellow is the standard regulation color for foul poles at most levels of play.
Are these poles suitable for Little League fields?
The FP20 Varsity Foul Pole is designed for regulation-size fields and rises 17 feet above ground. For Little League or youth fields with smaller dimensions, Fisher Athletic offers the Little League Foul Pole (a separate model) that rises 8.5 feet above ground - a better fit for smaller diamonds.
Can I order a custom size?
Yes - Fisher Athletic offers the FPSO model for custom-size foul poles, also sold in pairs. If your field has unique requirements that the standard FP20 doesn't meet, reach out to us and we can help you explore the custom sizing option.
How are these poles shipped?
Due to their length and weight, these foul poles require freight shipping. Please contact us at service@omahasportsandgames.com or fill out the shipping quote form on this page for delivery details and a freight estimate before purchasing.
