Baseball Bat Regulation Changes
Beginning in 2009, Little League Baseball has adopted the rule that non-wood bats used in ANY of the sixty-foot diamond baseball divisions must be printed with a BPF (Bat Performance Factor) of 1.15 or less. When this rule takes effect in April, 2009, ANY bat without the marking, or one with a BPF marking greater than 1.15, WILL be removed from the game. Also, as another reminder, at any time, the barrel of a bat used in any sixty-foot diamond program cannot exceed 2 1/4 inches in diameter. Also, beginning with the 2009 Little League Baseball season, baseball bats with a diameter of 2 3/4 inches are no longer permitted for use in the Junior League Division. Baseball bats with a 2 5/8-inch diameter are now the standard for all teenage baseball divisions (Junior, Senior and Big League). The "minus-3" requirement - overall weight (in ounces) of a bat can be no more than three ounces below the overall length (in inches) of the bat (for example, a thirty-three inch bat cannot weight less than thirty ounces) - remains in effect in Senior and Big League Baseball divisions, but is NOT a requirement in Junior Baseball.

Coles Little League Umpire Schedule
Did you realize that the 60 foot baseball/softball programs at Coles Little League are officiated by VOLUNTEER umpires? Our umpire crew sets aside their evenings and weekends to umpire games for our kids – often times they do not even have a youngster playing on our league! They do not get paid for their time. Every Major and Minor (AAA) game that our youngsters play should have at least two umpires, but Coles Little League currently does not have enough men and women volunteering to umpire so that we can meet that need. Friday, March 17
Altered Batting Helmets May Not Be Used
Little League has passed the following rule regarding batting helmets: Rule 1.16 and 1.17 (Baseball and Softball) Warning! Manufacturers have advised that altering helmets in any way can be dangerous. Altering the helmet in any form, including painting or adding decals (by anyone other than the manufacturer or authorized dealer) may void the helmet warranty. Helmets may not be re-painted and may not contain tape, or re-applied decals, unless approved in writing by the helmet manufacturer or authorized dealer. This rule will be strictly enforced by all league umpires. Any player wearing an unapproved, altered helmet will not be permitted to step into the batter's box. Tuesday, October 28
2009 Volunteer Application NOW Available
