Glove:
This one is an absolute must! Can’t really play baseball without a glove, right? Your child should be able to squeeze the glove without any issues.
Helmet:
I don’t know about you, but I don’t like the idea of my child sharing a helmet with others. Maybe I am just a germophobe but I consider a personal helmet a necessity. Don’t get anything too fancy especially for T-Ball – just something that offers enough protection should an accident happen.
Bat:
There will be plenty of bats to use, but I like the idea of my child having their own personal bat for one major reason – PRACTICE! A bat they can take home and practice with will be essential for building their skills at this age. Look for something light that they can swing comfortably. No need to spend a fortune at this age – T-ball bats will likely only be used for 1-2 seasons.
Cleats:
Get a good yet affordable pair of cleats. If your child will be playing on grass they can probably get away without them. But, cleats will be invaluable if your league plays on a traditional dirt infield. Don’t risk your little one falling and getting hurt. Once again, they will outgrow them quickly so no need to spend a ton of money.
Pants:
You want your child looking the part! Youth baseball pants are pretty affordable. They can get by with one pair but an extra pair of pants for practice never hurts.
There you have it – All the gear you need to make sure your T-Baller is ready to go!
