Solid Wood Softball Bat Rules and Guidelines: (SUGGESTION: attach a copy of this bat policy to your score book.
· Any bat not listed above should be submitted to Doug Glassmacher to be researched and approved.
· “ASA Approved” or “Official Softball” labels DO NOT automatically qualify that bat as approved according to our rules.
· All bats must not exceed 2 ¼” in diameter.
· All bats must be made from a single piece (billet) of solid wood, no composites or laminates.
· Bam boo in any form (laminated, core) is NOT APPROVED. Solid maple, oak, ash, birch are all approved woods.
· For safety, handles should be taped or gripped.
· Reinforced handles made of fiberglass or “glassed” are prohibited.
· Although bat color or paint is not regulated, transparent stains are recommended since opaque paint may be used to cover composites.
