Dixie Boys Pre-Majors and Majors (15-19), current rules: Use a BBCOR bat (a -3) or a wood bat, with a 2 5/8 in barrel: the rulebook requires that size, so smaller youth barrels aren't allowed.

Checked Oct 27, 2026. Confirm with your league before you buy: local leagues and tournaments can set their own rules, stricter or looser than the national ones. The rule in full and its sources.

Typical bat size for ages 15 to 19

Bat makers' charts put most players aged 15 to 19 at 32–34 in (Louisville Slugger, DeMarini, Rawlings). That's a guide, not a rule: height, weight and strength matter more, so see what size bat your kid needs. Your league's limits above always come first.
