Remember, smaller players looking for more groundball hitting through the infield should consider a lightweight bat to generate faster swing speeds. Youth players can best hone their stance, batting form and ability to run out with a bat that is easier to swing.

Keep in mind these factors when selecting an Easton® youth baseball bat:

• Barrel size is the measurement of a bat's diameter. Generally, the longer the barrel, the larger the sweet spot. Many players prefer a smaller barrel diameter that lightens weight for increased swing speed
• The grip is the covering used on the handle of aluminum, wood and composite bats. Rubber grips absorb more shock. Some youth bats come with a specialized cushioned grip to decrease bat vibration
• Bat drop describes length-to-weight ratio. Different leagues mandate different bat drops for legal play, so always check with your coach or local league

Age can be a good indicator of bat size. For 5 to 7-year-olds, think lengths of about 24 to 26 inches. 8 and 9-year-olds are often right for a bat that is 26 to 28 inches. 10 to 12-year-olds should look to bats between 28 and 31 inches.
