October 9, 2008
Dear District Administrative Staffs and Local Little League Baseball Officials:
Beginning
with the 2009 Little League Baseball season, baseball bats with a diameter of 2 ¾ inches are no longer permitted for use in
the Junior League Division of Baseball.
Baseball bats with a 2 5/8-inch diameter are now the standard for all
teenage baseball divisions (Junior, Senior and Big League).
The "minus-3" requirement - overall weight (in ounces)
of a bat can be no more than three ounces below the overall length (in inches) of the bat - remains in effect in Senior and
Big League Baseball divisions, but is NOT a requirement in Junior Baseball.
Also, in effect for the 2009 season
is the requirement that all non-wood bats used in Little League Baseball Divisions and below shall be printed with a BPF (bat
performance factor) of 1.15 or less.
Sincerely,
Little League International
P.O.
