Softball Glove

Softball Glove/Mitt

Generally speaking, a softball glove should fit the player and be large enough to hold the ball.
Please be sure to purchase a softball mitt.
If the player is playing 8U or 10U they will be using a 11" ball so the glove should be at least 11" big. 
In 12U fastpitch, a 12" ball is used so the player's glove should be at least 12" big.
14U and above use the 12" ball as well.

Batting Helmet

Per USA Softball rules, softball batting helmets must have the front face mask.  The helmets must also have the  NOCSAE stamp visible on the helmet.  Chin straps are optional.
