Louisville Slugger Atlas Tee Ball Bat

This bat is specifically designed for tee ball. While it can technically be used for coach-pitch, the lightweight alloy construction is optimized for the slower swing speeds and stationary ball contact typical of tee ball, so it may not hold up well against the higher velocity of coach-pitch.

The -12.5 drop weight indicates that the bat is very lightweight relative to its length. This makes it easier for young beginners to control the barrel, helping them develop proper swing mechanics without the bat feeling too heavy or cumbersome.

Yes, the alloy construction is built to withstand the demands of tee ball play. It offers a good balance of durability and performance for players just learning the game.

A 24-inch bat is a standard starting size for many tee ball players, typically fitting children around 4 to 5 years old. To check the fit, have your child stand straight and hold the bat at their side; the end of the bat should reach the middle of their palm.
