Proper Equipment

To play the best, you need the proper equipment. Baseball glove, bat, and cleats are all part of the game. Be sure each piece

of equipment fits properly to make playing more enjoyable.

Cleats should fit well and be broken in prior to play. Rubber molded cleats are acceptable for T-ball through Majors. Ensure

gloves and bats are fitted to ensure optimum performance. Use the sizing charts below as a guide to help select a bat and glove.

 

 

Sizing Charts

Gloves

When properly adjusted, a glove should fit fairly snugly. Allow room for a batting glove. It is a good idea for most players

to wear a batting glove inside their fielders glove to absorb moisture.
