Little League implemented a ban on composite bats (12/30/10) for ages 12 and under effective with the 2011 baseball season, however, Babe Ruth / Ripken (our governing body) reversed its' own ban and will continue to allow composite barrel bats in 2012 that are stamped "Babe Ruth approved" and "BPF 1.15", with barrels of not more than 2-1/4" in diameter. Don't be confused by discussion around BBCOR for ages 12 and under ....that level of bat certification is applicable only for divisions involving ages 13 and up. Nonetheless, be careful about buying an expensive bat ($175 and up) that you might not be permitted to use for more than one season if the rules change again.

We Need Your Help - Work Needed to be Done at CYO Complex
There are a few left-over items from our old to-do list. Call for Volunteers: Please click here to see if there are some things you can help us get accomplished this season.
Eligibility: Who Can Play in the Sacred Heart Program?
The Sacred Heart CYO program is affiliated with the Babe Ruth / Ripken organization, which follows clear geographical boundaries that prohibit children from playing in a Babe Ruth / Ripken league outside their sanctioned area.
Baseball: Sacred Heart baseball can accept players that live in the Burlington county communities of Hainesport, Mt. Holly, Lumberton, Eastampton and Westampton. Essentially all other communities in our immediate surrounding area are included in the sending areas for other Babe Ruth / Ripken affiliated programs.
Softball: Sacred Heart softball can accept players that live in the communities of Hainesport, Mt. Holly, Lumberton, Eastampton and Westampton, and can also accept players that live in other nearby communities that do not have a Babe Ruth affiliated program. Please check with us regarding eligibility if you live in a nearby community other than the 5 communities in our core sending district. We welcome all eligible players!
Sacred Heart School students: Eligibility for playing in the Sacred Heart program is governed strictly by the regulations put into place by the Babe Ruth organization, which are based on residency. As such, while we enjoy and benefit from the relationship with Sacred Heart Parish, the league is not in a position to allow students to play in the Sacred Heart Baseball and Softball Association if they live in a community that is included in a competing Babe Ruth / Ripken program.
If you happen to move: Anyone that plays in the Sacred Heart program with a qualifying residence can continue playing at Sacred Heart after they move to another community that is part of another Babe Ruth affiliated program's sending area. Under those circumstances, proof of prior residency would need to be maintained. The player's eligibility at Sacred Heart would end once they sign up for another Babe Ruth affilitated program, or once they decide to not come back (even for one year).
Do these rules apply to all ages? Yes ... Sacred Heart is applying the residency rules for all ages in our programs, all the way down to t-ball.
