ASA Bat Certification Program 
The official bat in
ASA Championship Play must meet all of the requirements of Rule
3, Section 1 and:
1 - must bear either
the ASA 2000 certification mark or the ASA 2004 certification
mark as shown below, and must not be listed on an ASA non
approved list, or
2 - must be included on a list of
approved bat models published by the ASA National Office; or
3 - must, in the sole opinion and
discretion of the umpire, have been manufactured prior to 2000
and if tested, would comply with the ASA bat performance standards
then in effect.
Beginning
January 1, 2004, all bats in ASA Championship Play must pass the
ASA 2004 bat standard. All bats having the 2004 certification
mark will be allowed in ASA Championship Play. Bats that have
the 2000 certification mark will not be allowed in ASA Championship
Play unless they are listed on an approved bat list on the ASA
website. For convenience here is a listing of bats that do not
pass the ASA 2004 bat standard.
