Our Uniform

Playing shirts are a required part of our uniform and are available for ordering prior to the season, and during the season if needed.

You can include a number on the back, many use the year of their birth. e.g. 1977 becomes 77. And a name, often this is a nickname or a surname. 

Kids without shirts may start the season in a plain red, white or black tshirt.

Some children like to wear an undershirt, they are also great for sun protection. You can get a fancy athletic top if you wish, but a plain black, red or white long-sleeved tshirt is much cheaper. Note, the kids WILL get dirty and red dirt isn’t fun to wash, so we recommend against white. Best & Less often have black athletic ones at a reasonable price.

We wear grey baseball pants as part of our required uniform.

These can be full length or knee length, your choice. Knee length ones must be worn with black baseball socks underneath to protect ones legs.

These can be ordered at several locations around Sydney and online, we also may have several in our second-hand clothing available.

Normal sneakers are absolutely fine for the younger players, rubber cleats are equally so.

We recommend older kids do wear cleats. Metal cleats can only be worn by Senior League and our Senior teams.

Belts: we wear black belts, these are available at most Baseball retailers, online or in person. Belts are typically one size and completely adjustable, and will often last a player from early ages right through to adult playing.

Socks: we wear black socks.

For our younger players, any old black ankle socks underneath your full length pants or knee high if going with 3/4 or shorter pants, from anywhere are acceptable. Kmart, Best & Less, Big W and Target all have options that are low priced. Older children should wear proper black baseball socks.

Kit Bags: Kit bags are what we refer to as the bags we place our baseball equipment in – batting helmet and mitt etc. Younger children can get away with a regular backpack, but older children will benefit from a dedicated bag. There are a huge range of options and price ranges to suit every budget from baseball retailers everywhere. We often have secondhand ones available if you are interested.

Protective wear: Sliders and cups are not necessary for younger players, we do recommend them though from Zooka and above. But use your own judgement if needed.

Batting helmets: batting helmets are compulsory, and a required piece of a players playing kit.

Sun protection: very much recommended, especially when playing in summer – sunscreen and long sleeves.

Baseball Bat Regulations:
Choosing the right baseball bat is essential for both performance and safety. Before you purchase any new equipment, please ensure it meets the current standards required for your specific grade.

Junior Divisions:
Players in Tee Ball, Zooka, and Little League (Minors and Majors) are required to use bats that carry the official USA Baseball stamp. These bats are specifically designed to perform similarly to wood to ensure a safe and balanced game for younger players.

Intermediate and Junior League:
Players in these age groups have the flexibility to use either a USA Baseball certified bat or a BBCOR certified bat.

Senior League and Adult Grades:
For our players in the St George Baseball Association winter competition, including those in 5th grade and 7th grade, all metal or composite bats must be BBCOR certified. These bats must feature the official certification mark and have a drop weight of exactly negative three.

Wooden Bats
Solid one piece wooden bats are permitted for use in all divisions of the club. Composite wood bats are also allowed for use in our adult senior grades.

Prohibited Equipment:
Please be aware that bats marked with the BPF 1.15 stamp are no longer legal for use in any Little League or Junior divisions. Using an illegal bat during a game will result in an automatic out for the batter.
