Is this bat little league approved?

It was for us in North Carolina. Some states may have different regulations. It was a great bat for my son. The light weight really helped his reaction time , contact with the ball just comes with practice. Good luck.

If it was a brand new bat and it came from a registered DeMarini dealer and you have the receipt, then yes. I have bought 3 of the CF5's in2 ddifferent sizes and the -11 bat broke and it was replaced by DeMarini with no problems. The other two were different sizes both -10 and have had no problems. When you buy the bat, make sure you are buying from a DeMarini registered dealer or they won't warranty it. That is what I was told by DeMarini

Yes! This is an excellent toy. My daughter loves playing with it. Very good quality! I haven't run into any mold or mildew issue with it as well.

The bat that was banned/decertified BBCOR was the 33". Reference: http://compositebats.com/marucci-cat-5-bbcor-33-inch-decertified/ The Marucci Black 33" was also banned sometime later in July that year.

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.

You don't need a special bat, but I would be recommend it. However, I do not recommend the machine. The concept is great, but the quality on the machine I purchased was extremely poor. Try a JUGS machine (Small-Ball® Pitching Machine). Lots more money, but I bet it's worth it. I don't own that machine though.

My daughter and several others used this bat in ASA and USSSA sanctioned tournaments. Also used in high school.

Not sure. I got it to play in a senior Softball league last year and they cancelled the team. Looked good and feels like real.

it is only supposed to be used with small (ping pong) size soft baseballs (but I have hand pitched some baseballs to my son in there and it is fine but you should not let the real baseball hit the poles). Ours has not fallen down and we set it up in January. It is fine for our purposes but it is not really sturdy. We had to use bungie cords to open the hole to get it the right height for the pitching machine but it works. It was the batting cage that we could afford.

Not a t-Ball bat. 26 inch bats are great for kids under 60 lbs and 3' 4". It is also a popular bat size for 5-7 year olds. The bat length should come up to your child's waist.

Yes, it is. However, it weighs more than the listed 19oz. Feels and weighs heavier than than non-composite 30/19 Demarini bats

It depends on the rules for your Little League, but some leagues (like my grandson's) limit a bat's diameter to 2-1/4 inches like this bat. Other leagues allow for a bigger diameter bat. I'd say check with the little league where your child will be playing. Incidentally this bat was a huge hit with my grandson and many of his teammates.

Maybe those bats would provide too much power. My kids use a typical plastic "wiffle ball" bat.

I believe so. The warranty is based on purchase new date. So if u buy a new bat, not used, one year warranty

No this is for a child, find a good batting gage in your town and that way you won't break a plastic toy for a child to learn with that doesn't have the strength as a adult...!!!

Yes! The bat handle is unfinished intentionally. This way it is easier to tape it or pine tar the handle and it doesn't slip as easily in bare hands.

Unless you're planning on batting by method of leaving it out on the street and letting the bat take on a Steam Roller, a Mastodon, or an airplane landing on it, I haven't had much trouble. This bat has been awesome so far. If you want something more "traditional" go wooden. But for the price, this thing's is as reliable as 'Ol reliable. I would've said Old Yeller, but we know where that story goes.
