Little League has some strict rules about the diameter of bats that can be used in games, is this bat OK to use in Little League?

Michael, I have no idea. I did a sports themed bedroom for my nine year old son this summer and used these bats for the bed railing and as a curtain rod. So I didn't purchase them for the purpose of using them in Little League. Sorry.

I do not know. My son plays in a local PAL league and I've never seen a coach or umpire challenge the use of any equipment. I woud have to laugh if I saw a George Brett pine tar style episode take place over the diameter of a bat in little league. But I suppose rules are rules.

Yeah.... I don't know. I only bought it to use if someone tries to break into the house. Unfortunately, the attacker will probably get it away from me before I can get a good swing in. Its a nice bat and if I never use it I can give it to my grandson. I will check and see if it says anything on it that it is ok for Little League. It just says "Grand Slam Youth Baseball" and someones autograph. Also says "Powerized" and "Louisville Slugger" Louisville, Kentucky. Made in USA. I just read "Little League bylaws limit the size of any bat to 33 inches in length and 2 1/4 inches in diameter. This one is 29" and 2 1/4" diameter. I believe it is ok for Little League then!

A regular baseball bat is fine. This machine will help with hand/eye coordination. The balls are very small and it will help them perfect their hitting.

Baseballs and goofballs are fine. Not really familiar with cricket ball if it like an american baseball yes I hit into it at close range kinda like a mini batting cage and it's fine. I don't know how to use it for cricket. Hope that helps enjoy it

ASA recently changed to a different core ball and made most USSA bats legal for ASA...I use this bat and I play in an ASA league......It is legal.

Of course. It's a tee. You can use any bat type - or even a broom stick should you want.

The Louisville slugger is great for baseball practice. You can set the speed to accommodate the type of ball you are playing. One of the best purchases we made for our child's practices.

Ok, I have the final answer to my own question. The YOUTH mask can be used for baseball. I tried shoving a baseball through the openings and a baseball can't fit. However, I tried shoving a baseball through the ADULT mask and a baseball will slide through with relative ease so if a baseball is hit between the openings, it CAN go through. I wouldn't use the adult size for baseball. Seems like an awesome mask. I tried wearing the adult mask and the cage feels so unobstructive that it feels like a softball can whack my face.Thanks!!

All depends on her strength and length of the bat. The lighter the bat, the quicker the bat speed. If your daughter is playing travel ball, she should have no problem with a -11. Bat speed is what you want. My daughter (14 yrs old)was swinging at 32/22 (-10) and I want to get her a longer bat because she grew a couple inches. I went to a 33/22 (-11) and it's perfect. She is able to control it with no problem.

I bought a 32in one for my son. You can choose the size of the bat from the drop down choices.

If I were a softball player I would use this with a baseball. If you train using a smaller ball then hit a bigger ball during games it should be easier to be successful.

No, it's meant for a small, inflatable ball (which they provide). We have also used one of those smaller balls that you use in a pool (they soak up water...about baseball sized) and it worked well. Great way for multiple players to have fun!

No. You would definitely want at least 32". It depends how tall he is. If he's pushing 6 foot, you might opt for a 34" and he can choke up on the bat a bit. Or at least 33".

If you want to hit for fielding practice, get a cheap metal bat and tape foam around the grip, or just get a fungo. Based on the material, I highly doubt it has enough pop for fielding practice.

Yes. It is a larger barrel with a 2 and 5/8" diameter at the end. This is the widest barrel for most Pony Baseball lower division leagues.

Probably too small. I got it for a 12 year old who is small for his age under 80 pounds I think. His Little League coach recommended it.

Aloha Bryan, Not familiar with the baseball quickster net, but I am also using this net for soccer for my daughter. And it works well. As for baseball, I am pretty certain it would be ok too. The net seems to be pretty strong and had enough give to make sure the baseball will not roll under the net as it comes to rest. I would be feel comfortable using it for baseball. Thanks

Yes it is a softball size ball. I haven't measured the bat but it's like the fat red ones.
