What are the 13U-15U Baseball Bat Regulations for 2012 for Kimberly leagues and tournaments?

Weight rule: 15U Division: -3 (all bats must be -3); 14U Division: -5 (the lightest allowed); 13U Division: - 8.5 (the lightest allowed)

Diameters: All aluminum/alloy barrel bats and all composite handle (only) aluminum/alloy barrels are allowed. Only composite barrel bats certified and marked BBCOR .50 will be allowed.

No bat will have a diameter less than 2 5/8” and no greater than 2 3/4’”.  A -3 bat must have the BBCOR sticker on them (the same rules as high school).  BBCOR does not authenticate any bat lighter than -3.  The lighter bats must have the USSSA sticker on them. 

All new bats manufactured as of this past fall have the USSSA sticker on them (along with other governing bodies' stickers).

Are metal spikes allowed for 13U-17U Kimberly leagues and tournaments? 

Yes, in the past it was rubber only but as of 2011 metal spikes are allowed for 13U.

What are the Little League (10U-12U) Baseball Bat Regulations for 2012 Kimberly leagues and tournaments?

For Little League Baseball Divisions: The moratorium on composite-barreled baseball bats remains in effect. However, some composite-barreled baseball bats that have been proven in laboratory testing to meet the BPF (Bat Performance Factor) standard throughout the life of the bat, through the Accelerated Break-In (ABI) process, have received waivers.

See the Official Little League baseball website for additional information:  

List of some composite bats that meet BFF standards is here: Licensed/Approved Composite 2 1/4 Bats.
