BBCOR Bats
BBCOR stands for Bat-Ball Coefficient of Restitution. This new rule is designed to make non-wood bats even more wood-like in their performance. All BBCOR bats can be easily identified by the BBCOR mark.
College Level: Now in effect - All bats used in the NCAA and any organizations that follow NCAA rules (such as the NA1A), must be BBCOR certified.
High School Level: Starting Jan. 1, 2012 - All bats used in NFHS high school baseball and leagues that follow NFHS rules must be BBCOR certified.
*Per NFHS rule change announcement. Please refer to NFHS web site to confirm.
