Rawlings | Official League Recreational Use Practice Baseballs | Youth/8U | OLB3 | Bucket | 24 Count

I coach a team of 7-8 year olds, these balls are great for soft toss or tee drills, but definitely not for throwing, they are plastic, the under 12 balls are more expensive but you get what you pay for.

A++

Just in time for baseball season. Perfect for practice.

They’re great! If you need a bucket of baseballs then buy em!!!

what more is there to say!

Best value for the money

I liked that they were cheap for the QTY provided, bucket is good quality too for reuse possibilities. Honestly, the balls are cheaply made and already show witness marks and some fraying of the stitching after 3 days of usage. Use for ages 7 and below, older kids (my 9 year old) will tear them up. For by 4 year old its great as he hot hit by a pitch and didnt worry about it due to softness! Recommend for younger kids as mentioned, not for serious play on gravel.

Use these for tee ball. They work great.

If you are coaching 8 and under and want quantity of practice balls, these are great. Drills run quicker, more bp swings, and if you lose a few, so what. Also, a big plus, is if you are practicing on a wet field, these balls allow you to pocket your good leather ones for better conditions. The synthetic holds up better than the leather over the course of a season if they get wet. But again, remember, these are practice balls. For some drills you may want to use game balls, but these fill in the rest. If you are looking for every ball in your bag to be a game ball, Id give it 1 star. If you want a quantity of balls to get you through a youth season of practices, Id it 5 stars.

Likes them because they are bouncy
