Is this a good bat for a 5yr old coach pitch?

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

No, I would stick to something smaller. I just bought this bat for my 13 year old and it fits him perfect!

Yes ,give it a try I know you will be happy with it. I had a guy from a mans slow pitch check it out, and said he was going to get one for his team too practice.

It can be used for baseball and it will throw slow for the younger kids. Maybe 15 mph? Not as slow as you throwing underhand in a soft toss motion, say to a 4 or 5 year old.

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

From what the "experts" say, 31 inch bats are suited better for the 11-12 year old players. That is considering they are average weight and height. Even if your son was a little above average for his age group I would consider something a little shorter. I think a 29" would be as long as I would go for his age. A good test would be to visit a sports store with similar weight/length bats and have him test his swing, grip, and stance. The good thing about this particular bat is that is extremely light for its size but I still think a 31" would be a bit much. Good luck

Hi, yes it will work for great for a 5 year old and should for a 3 year old. It is easy to pull back, no problem and with nice soft darts if they tend to 'aim' at each other no one will get hurt, lol.

A couple of important questions ... How tall are you? When you cock the bat, how high is the top of the bat? If the answers to both questions is less than 6 feet, you shouldn't have any problems unless a third question comes into play ... are you still growing? My grand daughter is 10 years old and uses it every day. It is a good product.

My husband says if it's for someone 5 ft-ish or shorter it will work, but if they're taller and swing the right way, your bat would hit the ceiling when following through. Hope that helps....we had ours in the garage and our son used it for several years until he grew to be about 5'2.

No. You would definitely want at least 32". It depends how tall he is. If he's pushing 6 foot, you might opt for a 34" and he can choke up on the bat a bit. Or at least 33".

My ten year old son uses it for defense. Great for defense but I don't believe the ball will return at pitching distance. If it doesn't return completely it's still better than throwing at a five gallon bucket.

Depends on the height and strength of you daughter, my kid is 5 foot...our travel team we have 5 girls with this bat...great bat, go to a local sports store to figure out length...

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.

This will be our second season using the Accubat and our players are a mix of 13 and 14 year olds. You can definitely hit a baseball further with a regular bat but this product is very effective for medium and short-range fly balls. It takes some practice to get your range down but once you figure it out you should do fine with it.

I bought a 32in one for my son. You can choose the size of the bat from the drop down choices.

I bought it for my grandson and he uses it but I don't know if it will throw a breaking pitch. I'll see what I can find out.

Yes, we use wood, metal and wiffle bats at the house and or practice. Hitting wiffleballs, softballs, baseballs and tennis balls so far. It's a good T to have for the price. You really can't go wrong with it with young hitters.

I got this bat for my 10 year old but I certainly would have purchased this bat for him when he was 9.30 inch / 17 ounceEaston YB14S500 S500 Youth Baseball Bat
