Required Equipment & Sizing Guide

All items must meet Little League International rules and NOCSAE safety standards.

Required Equipment
• Bat – Little League–approved bat with a USA Baseball stamp
• Batting Helmet – NOCSAE-certified helmet (face cage recommended)
• Glove – Youth tee ball or baseball glove
• Cleats – Rubber cleats only (no metal spikes)
• Pants – Gray baseball pants

Sizing Guidance
Bat Size
• Most Tee Ball players use a bat between 24”–25”
• Lightweight bats are strongly recommended
• A good test is whether your child can hold the bat straight out briefly without struggling
• Focus on control and confidence, not bat length or power

Glove Size
• Recommended size: 8.5”–10”
• Look for gloves labeled “tee ball,” “youth,” or “beginner”
• Soft, flexible gloves work best — stiff gloves make catching difficult

Cleats
• Any athletic rubber cleat is acceptable (baseball or soccer style)

Optional Items
• Batting gloves
• Protective cup
• Labeled water bottle
