In Effingham County,Georgia the Middle School uses a -3 drop bat. In nassau county, New York the middle school players have to use a -3
We live in Northern Delaware and the middle school teams, including parochial and private schools follow the rules for High School. These rule allow a drop of -3 on any non-wooden bat. So my answer is to check with your middle school and see what rules they follow.
Mo but you have to use a -3 bat in highschool
It depends in what school but usually yes
i think its -3
-5 bat is legal for Central Valley Middle School's , I'm not sure if it has to be BBCOR or BESR.
Yes -10 is aloud in MSB
The state doesn't determine what types of bats are allowed. It is up to the city's league rules whether or not wooden bats are allowed. In my own opinion, any time aluminum or composite bats are allowed, I would be using one, because the BBCOR on an aluminum or composite bat is much higher than wood, and if I'm the only person using a wooden bat in the league, everybody else has an advantage over me.
In middle school baseball in Georgia, players typically use bats that are either BBCOR-certified or marked with a USA Baseball stamp. The maximum allowable length for these bats is usually 33 inches, and they must have a drop weight of -3 for BBCOR bats or a drop weight of -10 to -5 for USA Baseball bats. It's important for players to check with their specific league for any additional regulations or requirements.
In Connecticut, the legal bat length to weight ratio for middle school baseball, governed by the National Federation of State High School Associations (NFHS) rules, is typically a -3 ratio. This means that the bat's weight in ounces must be three less than its length in inches. For example, a 30-inch bat must weigh at least 27 ounces. It's important to check with local regulations or specific leagues, as rules may vary.
I used one in Middle School. But, If I were you I would check the rules for specifications. It will more than likely be that you CAN use it. So make sure you check with a coach or league administrator.
well if ur using -3 bats then they have to have a 3 number difference between the length and width and have to be BESR certified. This means that the Bat Exit Speed Ratio of the ball coming off the ball cant b above a certain mph, i think it is 97 mph. If the bat has a BESR sticker on it and is -3 its good
