Repeat for those that believe the myth; bats with the 2000 bat certification are legal in NFHS unless they are on the (longer; all bats with 2000 or 2004 certifications, currently 29 bats) Non-Approved bat list.

I agree that both marks are legal in Fed. I give our guys the shorter, 2004 only list because it is a rarity that we see a bat that has the 2000 mark. It's easier for them to have in their hand when checking bats.

All right, now I am really confused.
Could somebody break it down the requirements by ASA, NFHS, NCAA, and NAIA. Thanks. MTD, Sr.

Not that complicated, it's the shortcuts and liberties people take that make it appear complicated.
ASA fastpitch: Bat must have ASA 2000 cert, OR, 2004 cert, OR, in umpires judgment be manufactured prior to 2000 and comply in every other way, AND (in all cases) not be on the ASA NonApproved list. ASA slowpitch: Bat must have ASA 2000 cert, OR, 2004 cert, OR, 2013 cert, OR, in umpires judgment be manufactured prior to 2000 and comply in every other way, AND (in all cases) not be on the ASA NonApproved list. NFHS: Bat must have ASA 2000 cert, OR, 2004 cert, AND (in all cases) not be on the ASA NonApproved list. NCAA: Bat must have ASA 2004 cert, AND not be on the ASA NonApproved list, AND must be on the NCAA Approved List, AND must be highlighted, counted, and inspected pregame as part of that team's bat list. NAIA: Identical to NCAA in every way. Uses all NCAA rules, protocols, and procedures.

Mark, Jr., and I thank you for the break down. This is the time of Rules Difference that the NFHS should put on its website. MTD, Sr.

In the interest of completeness, JO Boy's Fastpitch, Men's Fastpitch, and Men's Modified are allowed to use bats with the 2013 ASA cert. The bat must not be on the ASA NonApproved list.

Reebok Vector O is a baseball bat and is not legal for Softball additionally it is illegal for Baseball also due to the holes in the handle.
