Some players are contact hitters, while others are power hitters. Unfortunately, the best way to determine the weight that is best for you or your player is through trial and error.

How To Test the Bat Length and Weight

Measure Length: A correctly sized bat allows the player to maintain proper form, reach pitches effectively, and avoid awkward swings.

Height Test: Have your child stand upright with the bat positioned vertically alongside their leg. The bat should touch the ground and reach no higher than their hip or slightly above it.
Arm Test: Have your child hold the bat with one hand extended outward (parallel to the ground) for about 10 seconds. If they can do this without the bat feeling too heavy, it’s likely a good fit.

Weight Check: The right weight ensures the player can swing quickly and with control, maximizing both power and accuracy.

Swing Test: Have your child swing the bat naturally. It should feel easy and controlled, without dragging or straining their arms.
Control Test: If the bat feels unwieldy or they can’t keep a steady grip, it’s likely too heavy.
