Thursday, October 16 New Bat Rules for Spring '09
Oct. 16, 2008
Dear District Administrators and Local Little League Officials,
We have received a number of inquiries regarding last week's announcement regarding non-wood bats. Here are some additional details.
Additional Information for Little League Baseball (Majors) and Below
In effect for the 2009 season is the requirement that all non-wood bats used in Little League Baseball (Majors) Divisions and below shall be printed with a BPF of 1.15 or less.
This stipulation has been included in the Official Rules and Regulations for the past few years, leading up to 2009, so that leagues, parents, and bat manufacturers could prepare for it.
Most non-wood bats manufactured over the past several years for the age groups involved in Little League Baseball (Majors) and below have been permanently imprinted with the BPF. In fact, very few bats sold today with a diameter of 2-1/4 (two and one-quarter) inches are not printed with the BPF rating.
So, starting with the 2009 season, bats printed with a BPF higher than 1.15, or without a BPF printed (or not legible) on the bat, are not permitted in these divisions.
Sincerely,
Little League International
