Little League has some strict rules about the diameter of bats that can be used in games, is this bat OK to use in Little League?

Michael, I have no idea. I did a sports themed bedroom for my nine year old son this summer and used these bats for the bed railing and as a curtain rod. So I didn't purchase them for the purpose of using them in Little League. Sorry.

I do not know. My son plays in a local PAL league and I've never seen a coach or umpire challenge the use of any equipment. I woud have to laugh if I saw a George Brett pine tar style episode take place over the diameter of a bat in little league. But I suppose rules are rules.

Yeah.... I don't know. I only bought it to use if someone tries to break into the house. Unfortunately, the attacker will probably get it away from me before I can get a good swing in. Its a nice bat and if I never use it I can give it to my grandson. I will check and see if it says anything on it that it is ok for Little League. It just says "Grand Slam Youth Baseball" and someones autograph. Also says "Powerized" and "Louisville Slugger" Louisville, Kentucky. Made in USA. I just read "Little League bylaws limit the size of any bat to 33 inches in length and 2 1/4 inches in diameter. This one is 29" and 2 1/4" diameter. I believe it is ok for Little League then!

I found that only soft, regular sized baseballs work. Little league sized ones do not work.

Yes...my 12 year old used this bat during the 2014 baseball season and had great success with the new bat.

Yes it is legal for both little league and travel ball, it comes with the USSSA stamp and is not considered big barrell. It also has the little league approval stamped right on it. I hope this helps.

Aloha Bryan, Not familiar with the baseball quickster net, but I am also using this net for soccer for my daughter. And it works well. As for baseball, I am pretty certain it would be ok too. The net seems to be pretty strong and had enough give to make sure the baseball will not roll under the net as it comes to rest. I would be feel comfortable using it for baseball. Thanks

Baseballs are not a problem, hit them all the time. Soft tballs are also not an issue. Big super balls are also fun to hit, but don't think you asked about that...

Bats are sized to each age group and person. There are charts out there to look at to fit him. I think this is too big and heavy for a 5 yr old. 10-12 yrs old are using this size

I bought this bat for my daughter's 11th birthday. I got the 31-20, (-11). My daughter loves this bat and doing well with it on her travel team. She has teammates from her LL league team and her travel team go out and buy this bat after using it. I can't tell you exactly what size to buy, but you can find some good info on the internet. Hope this helps some.

Yes it is a softball size ball. I haven't measured the bat but it's like the fat red ones.

Space between the net strands are 1-5/8" and do not deform much so that spacing should hold tight.For comparison, a lacrosse ball is around 2.5" in diameter which is just smaller than a baseball so I think a lacrosse ball would be fine.

A 31" bat is the max recommended length for a 5'2" player. Make sure that the bat feels comfortable to her and that she is confident with her cut. More important than the length is the weight. Have your daughter take the bat at the knob with her throwing hand and hold it directly out in front of her for about 5 seconds. If she can do this, then that bat is feasible.

I don't know that you can really go wrong with a ball from 5-9 inches. I have a 2 and a 4 year old and we have several different sizes. Probably their favorite one is about 6 or 7 inches inches in size. It is good for kicking and two handed throwing. I had bought an 8.5 inch one for my 6 year old nephew, but both girls can play with it too.

Most definitely. I use it for kids, but just took an adult out to work on his hitting. Excellent product.

I think you can use regular baseballs but they are harder on the wheel and the wheel won't last as long and it will rip the leather off the ball after a couple of uses..If you buy the machine use the machine balls they work good.

I would check at your sporting good store because it depends on height and weight of each individual child. I believe there is a smaller version of this bat but we purchased the 30.

Just a quick follow up, we bought one for our daughter who is 4' 6", 60-70lbs in 5th grade. We bought her a 29" 19 oz DeMarini, also called a drop 10 (-10). It's a good length and weight. You can find some good deals on these bats and if it's a starter, he will keep changing bats as his skill progresses. Good luck

I use this on all of our teams mako's and it cause no damage to the bats nor the machine. the material the stick and ball are made of are a softer material than the little league balls are made of.
