    Attention Juniors Baseball Players, Coaches & Parents

    Hello Junior Baseball Players, Coaches and Parents.

    With the season starting tomorrow we wanted to pass along this bat regulation material. All material and information can be found at www.littleleague.org. In Junior league you may use the new USA standard bats. However, you may also use the old BBCOR standard bats as well. Please see the note below from Little League for Intermediate and Junior Baseball Divisions.

    NOTE 2: Also, permitted for the Intermediate (50-70) Division and Junior League Division are bats meeting the BBCOR performance standard, and so labeled with a silkscreen or other permanent certification mark. The certification mark shall be rectangular, a minimum of a half-inch on each side and located on the barrel of the bat in any contrasting color. Aluminum/alloy and composite bats shall be marked as to their material makeup being aluminum/alloy or composite. This marking shall be silkscreen or other permanent certification mark, a minimum of one-half-inch on each side, and located on the barrel of the bat in any contrasting color.

    Hope this helps, and have a great season.
