Little League International Issues Update Regarding Composite Bats: Moratorium Imposed Immediately

Little League Rules on Compliant Baseball Bats for 2011

January 11, 2011 by Soldier’s Mail
I have just received another email from Little League International dated 12/30/10 which now imposes an immediate moratorium on the use of composite non-wood bats at ALL levels of play in Little League Youth Baseball for the upcoming 2011 season. This is a significant expansion of the moratorium originally announced on 9/1/10 which applied to Junior, Senior and Big League Divisions only.
Once again, this email is authorized by Little League International for redistribution so I have reproduced it here in its entirety (with emphases added) for interested readers. The original can also be found at the Little League Online website via the following link:http://www.littleleague.org/media/newsarchive/2010/Sep-Dec/CompositeBatMoratium.htm
The bottom line is to avoid the purchase of new composite non-wood bats as described in the following letter if your player will participate in ANY Division of Little League Baseball for 2011!
