APPROVED BATS FOR 2012 SEASON

The NLLN Board of Directors has voted to allow certain metal, metal-composite and all composite bats for the 2012 season. Over the past two years, Little League has imposed additional testing and certification measures in connection with approving composite bats for use in little league games. Although the Board was of the opinion that the use of wood bats at the Major league level last year was a success, the Board determined that this was an opportune time to allow for the reintroduction of what we believe are metal, metal-composite and all composite bats better suited for children of little league age. The ONLY metal, metal-composite and all composite bats that are approved for play during the entire 2012 little league season are bats that appear on this list.

List of Approved Bats

Do not rely on the list of approved bats on the Little League website, as that list may change over the season. If you have any difficulty accessing the list, please contact NLLN President Eric Grover at eagrover@kellergrover.com and a pdf of the list will be emailed to you. Wood bats that 100% wood are also acceptable at all levels of play.
