Letter from NFHS
I have been ordering blank wood bats from Ben Aaron bats and have been researching the legality of painting them myself. I have decided to use all-wood bats this year for my HS team in hopes there would be no issues with BBCOR. I have written many letters to different organizations, the reply below is what I am following as a guideline.
Mr. McCord,
Wood bats are permissible in high school baseball competition as long as they meet the requirements of having the diameter 2 ¾ inches or less at the thickest part and be 36 inches or less in length. We do not have criteria for paint or logo design. Thanks for the inquiry.
