How do I choose the right baseball or softball bat as a gift?

Choosing a bat depends on the player’s league rules, age, height, strength, experience and personal preferences. Bat length, weight and drop weight are important considerations, and some leagues have specific bat certification requirements. If you’re unsure which bat is right, ask the player or consult a United Sport & Cycle team member before purchasing.

What should I look for when buying a baseball or softball glove?

The right glove depends on whether the player plays baseball or softball, their position, age and hand size. Infielders, outfielders, pitchers and catchers may need different glove styles. Softball gloves can also differ from baseball gloves in size and design, so consider how the glove will be used before choosing one.
