EQUIPMENT:

​

The league supplies an equipment bag to all teams...included in the bag are bats, practice balls, and catcher's gear (except in the T-Ball division). Many parents purchase bats for their child.

 

League rules regarding bats are as follows:

​

For Coach Pitch, Minor Hardball, & Major Hardball - Barrel width limit is 2 3/4" max. Bats must carry the "USSSA 1.15 BPF" logo or the "USA Baseball" logo. Bats approved by USA Baseball will not have 1.15 BPF logo since they are already manufactured as a reduced injury bat. There is no limit on the length/weight ratio.

​

For T-Ball - The bat must state "T-Ball" or "For T-Ball Use" or something along those lines.

​​

​

For ALL divisions - Due to health and safety concerns, all players will need to supply their own helmets. There are no rules regarding color, and a facemask is permitted but not required. Attachable jaw guards are also permitted but not required. Helmets must be stamped with the national safety seal (NOCSAE) in the back. Sharing helmets is discouraged but is allowed.
