FAS BAT TESTING UNDERWAY
As promised in a letter to all participants through your team manager, FAS has begun random bat testing.
FAS purchased a bat compression tester from ASA to help ensure a safe environment for all our participants.
The tester ensures a bat’s compression is within the safety standards as determined by the ASA Equipment Standards Committee.
It is our goal that all players will have all their bats tested so that in the near future, all FAS play will use only approved bats.
FAS is accomplishing this by visiting fields to test bats, and additionally, the dates advertised below will be open testing dates for players who have not had their bat tested, or those who have additional bats to test.
An FAS hologram is placed on all bats passing the compression test.
Bats which fail the test are not permitted to be used in FAS play, and the user and/or owner of the bat will be presented with a Results Form that details the failed bat, and outlines the penalties invoked should this bat be found in a future FAS game and/or fails a future FAS bat test.
Open Bat Testing Dates and Locations -- TBD
 SOFTBALLS AVAILABLE FOR PURCHASE AT FAS OFFICE.
FAS is now providing the ASA Premier Tournament Top Grade Dudley Thunder ZN 12-Inch Softball for males, and the popular leather Thunder Heat for females. The ZN softball is the #1 rated softball behind the Dudley Thunder Advanced, which are no longer obtainable as production was halted in May of 2009. FAS offers the best price for softballs, beating even popular internet options. For only $45 a dozen, you receive one of the hottest softballs allowed, and one that is guaranteed legal for all FAS league play. Remember: purchasing softballs from FAS helps to keep your franchise fees at the great low price we currently maintain.
