Please note that as of January 1, 2018, the new USA Baseball Bat Standard will be implemented. Little League-approved baseball bats that are approved for use for the 2017 season will no longer be acceptable for use in any Little League game or activity starting on January 1, 2018. For more information on the USABat standard and a complete list of bats approved through the USABat Standard, visit usabat.com. 

Note that TEE BALL BATS 26 inches and smaller used for TEE BALL Divisions only (and using "softies" baseballs) do not need to meet the USA Baseball Bat standards.

There are no changes to the Softball Bat Rules
