Put safety first, then choose the equipment that your child feels comfortable using and wearing. Gloves A leather shell will generally maintain a better pocket shape and will last far longer than synthetic material. Synthetic or mesh style gloves are usually better for young children because they are lighter and easier to break in. When purchasing a glove, ensure that your hand fits snugly and comfortably within it to have the proper control and flexibility. You should be able to close the glove around the ball.
Loose shoes increase the risk of injury.
Also ensure that the laces are tied well and do not have an extraordinary amount of shoelace dangling from it. Bats Lighter is generally better. The bat should not drag through the air when you swing it. If you have to labour to swing, then the bat is probably too heavy. Finding the most efficient size of the bat will improve bat speed.
