We Do have baseball/softball pants available for $5.00(sizes,colors vary)

What Equipment or Gear Will My Child Need?

Bat: it must be USA and have the USA logo on it. NO USSSA’s are allowed. The bat should be,on average,the length from the center of the child’s chest to the tip of their fingers. A good test on weight is to have your child hold that bat with one hand up and straight out to the side for 10 seconds. If they begin to shake it, it’s to heavy. The most common mistke is bats that are too heavy.

Glove: as kids grow differently, get the appropriate size for your child’s hand, not age.. First base mitts and catcher mitts are allowed. It is suggested to put your chiilds name on the glove.

Helemet: It should fit snug, and not fall in front of their eyes. No stickers, decals or anything besides factory applied items on the outside. It is suggested that on the inside, the players name is applied.

Pants: Pants should fit well and not be too baggy. They need to offer proper coverage for sliding. Sliding shorts underneath are an option.

Face Guard: for softball players, they should have a defensive face guard.

Cleats: Rubber molded cleats are allowed, NO metal cleats unless you are in juniors or seniors.
