Legal Bats

In general (from Fred Lingad, the head umpire)
Date: Mon, 19 Apr 2004 15:30:20 -0700 (PDT) From: FRED LINGAD (head umpire) I have prepared a 2004 SCMAF approved restricted bat list for your league. Please note this is modified for your league (JPL) in accordance to 2004 SCMAF RULES for coed. NO EXCEPTIONS!! All bats must be labeled or stamped "OFFCIAL SOFTBALL" if not because of it being a old bat final decision will be up to the umpire. If week to week one umpire allows and next week different umpire does not allow again it will up to the umpire that night. Any bat that is tampered with or can't read the label will be considered illegal and "not allowed". Can't read it can't use it. Any bat with a unique or weird sound the umpire has the right to not allow bat to be used. All bats must not exceed 1.2 BPF. Bats all must have a proper grip or not allowed.( Tape is OK )
Specifically, this is the 2004 bat list as of April 19, 2004. All bats not listed are legal. For newer models, the umpire has the final say.
