2024 Rawlings Storm Tee Ball Bat Review
The 2024 Rawlings Storm is a one-piece alloy Tee Ball bat (-12), aimed at first-time hitters.
There's a newer version available. See the 2025 Storm — the current model → 7.2/10🎈 About tee ball bats
Tee ball is all about fun and first swings — honestly, there's no wrong choice here, so we don't put a score on it. At this level a bat just needs to be light, the right length, and (usually) USA-stamped. Grab a fun color, get the size right, and let them rip.
- Size first: most 4–7 year olds swing a 24–26" bat best — have them hold it out straight; if it droops, size down.
- Go light: a big drop (−11 to −13) keeps it easy and fast to swing.
- Check the stamp: most leagues want a USA Baseball (USABat) mark — this one has it.
- Don't overthink the price: they'll grow out of it in a season, so a fun, affordable bat is perfect.
