	Final List of Approved Bats for Spring 2012 DLL Season

by posted 04/03/2012

All:

The attached lists (full and composite only) comprise the final approved bats for use in DLL this Spring (as of 4/1). Any changes to these lists by LLI (currently as of 3/12/12 for Full, 3/14/12 for composite only) will not apply to the DLL Spring '12 season

Managers should communicate the same to their players/parents and are responsible for checking the legality of the bats in their dugouts/rack for each game from here to the Champ game. We highly recommend making the "comp list" a permanent part of their scorebooks.
