Also is any had issues with injuries because of their use. If wanting not to publicly post, use: tait_ebay@yahoo.com Thanks. |

| June 3, 2013 titanhd Men's 60 639 posts | Neck we use senior bats in Grand Rapids. As long as both teams agree-otherwise it's ASA bats. |
| June 3, 2013 Corky Men's 55 451 posts | In Indy we use 44/400 worth gold dots and all senior bats are leagal. Indiana Senior Softball org. runs the leagues. Indianapolis Sports Park provides the diamonds and NSA umpires. 6' tall 2' wide pitchers screen is mandatory. screen may be moved half the width of the 2' pitching rubber to accomodate left or right handed pitchers. Batted ball hitting screen is a dead ball strike. On third strike the batters out. No significant injuries so far. |

| June 3, 2013 BruceinGa Men's 70 3233 posts | Cherokee Senior Softball (cssasoftball.com), Woodstock, Ga. 300' fences, 65" bases(?), pitcher's screen, insurance through SSUSA, senior bats and any 44/375 ball. Only in our National League. We have other divisions, American, Legends, Legacy and Masters. They all swing ASA bats and don't have to pay the extra insurance. In the past 10 or 12 years I can't remember anyone being hurt as a result of the senior bats. You should contact our commissioner to be sure. |
| June 3, 2013 Perl 212 posts | Our league in Pensacola Florida uses senior bats, Baden fire balls and the pitchers screen. We use SPA rules and insurance. We have had at least two pitchers injured, not seriously, by hit balls. Both instances could have been avoided if the pitcher would have stayed behind the screen. For league details and POCs go to exchangeparkpensacola.com |
| June 4, 2013 Caveman Men's 50 68 posts | Big Valley Seniors Lodi use 44-375 and only allow senior bats for players over 70 years of age. Our league is blended in age with 7 teams with players 50-85. All other players must use aluminum bats Treacy Elliott Big Valley Seniors Treasurer |
| June 4, 2013 Caveman Men's 50 68 posts | Also we use a mandatory pitching screen |
| June 4, 2013 taits Men's 65 4548 posts | I can understand the screen use in League play. Our league is split into 50's+, 58's+, 63's _+ and now 40's+. Use fastpitch dream seam ball that gets soft after about a dozen hits and the seams cause the balls to take some bat hops off the hard infield. Nice to rad that most are using tournament equipment and not the other stuff. My thoughts on the games are that if your using a screen why not the good balls and sr bats. Many older guys play down and that's cool. |
| June 5, 2013 ShaneV Men's 55 393 posts | Olympia (WA) Senior Softball League uses standard Trump 44/375 senior ball from SSUSA - Anaconda. We do not use screens, but we do use a middle rule. It's an out if through the 2' x 6' pitcher's box. We had a broken jaw in 2011, I believe it was a bad hop off the pitching rubber, no other significant injuries. We play on artificial turf infields in Lacey WA and use senior bats. We now have pitching rubbers removed. We've had 40's included for a couple years and are phasing them out. We have 50M to 60AA currently in summer session. |
| June 5, 2013 Olden Slow Men's 75 209 posts | Here in Prescott...We use Senior 1.21 bats and use either the pos Zulu or Stote... |
