LEGAL and BANNED BATS

240 Stamp   Old Stamp

ONLY 240 BATS ALLOWED

As you may know, there was a temporary ban on Suncoast and Juno Bats. They had testing issues the bats were deemed a safety issue

the Juno bats have been reinstated,.........

The SunCoast banned models are listed below

Suncoast | SR12MUCETE
Suncoast | SRM12AASE
Suncoast | SR12MUCE
Suncoast | SRMAASE
Suncoast | SRMAASB
Suncoast | SRMUSE
Suncoast | SR12MUSE
Suncoast | SRMUSB

Please understand that "player safety" was first and foremost in the decision to move to "240" bats.

USSSA was the pioneer in bat technology for slowpitch softball and contributes a lot of resources to ensuring there is a balance between performance and safety in equipment.

Courtesy (Bandit) Runner

• The Bandit Runner (BR) may be anyone on the roster.
• The BR must be designated before the game begins This is tied to the player and not a position in the lineup or on the roster.
• The BR will be the Bandit Runner for the remainder of the game. The BR may run for anyone at any time.
• If the BR is also in the batting lineup, and his turn at bat occurs while he is on base, his position in the batting order will be an out. If the BR’s “Turn at Bat” occurs and the BR is ON BASE, an out will be recorded for his position in the batting order. There are NO exceptions. His “turn at bat” occurs when the previous batters turn at bat has ended. “Play Ball” or “Batter Up” need not be indicated for his turn at bat to occur. There shall be no other penalty other than an out.
• The BR role may not be substituted. A Bandit Runner may be replaced on the base only by the player he is running for at the time. The Bandit Runner role is then lost for the remainder of the game.
• If anyone other that the BR assumes a position on the base to run for another player and is not announced as a legal substitute the baserunners will be declared out.
