this is going to sound like a dumb question as I'm just about to play my first ssusa tourny. can you use any utrip 220 or 240 bat in tournaments? I'm not a power hitter as i hit for singles. just wondering?

bman - BAT POLICY is listed above. Believe as long as it has a BPF that is legible; basically any bats manufactured before 2021 must be stamped 1.21 bpf or less (USSSA is usually stamped 1.20bpf). If you have ANY questions about your specific bat, you can always call or email home office rather than "show up and hope it's legal". Hope this help

if you look just above in the green area "bat policy" look up your bat.

if not on there check with home office.

Looks like this policy changes Nov 1, if I'm reading the policy corrrectly.

Reading the new policy "Beginning Nov. 1, 2023, Bats must be marked with the SSUSA/NTS Logo, or marked SSUSA approved (or have SSUSA logo), with 1.21 BPF or less."

I hope this policy is moving forward, and does not mean that existing bat are band, correct?

This is more for new bats coming out, correct?

just wanting clarification.
