New Baseball Bat Standard for New England Elite Baseball League
this will be the marked stamp on new USA Bats
Starting on January 1st, 2018 the New England Elite Baseball League will be adopting the 'USA Baseball' Bat Standard.
All bats for the 8U-13U levels will need to have the USA Baseball Stamp on it, (BBCOR Bats can also be used at any level those bats do not have the USA Stamp on them). These bats will be made available to the public in retail stores starting September 1st. If the bat has a USA stamp on it then it can be used for any of the 8U-13U levels in the EBL, all other bats will be illegal. The barrel sizes for these bats will be from 2 1/4-2 5/8 and the new standard will not have a drop-weight limit, so players can use bats made with light-weight material as long as the USA stamp is on the bat. All other bats from previous years will now be considered illegal starting January 1st. This is a change that is being done Nationally by Little League, Pony League, Babe Ruth, Cal Ripken, AABC and so on. The majority of the tournaments that teams will enter in 2018 will also be changing the bat rules.
USSSA (U triple S A) - These stamped bats WILL NOT be allowed in the EBL. There is a difference between the USA stamped bats and the USSSA stamped Bats.
