The Youth Split is designed for athletes who are 6-12 years old. It features a spin on our traditional design. The knobs are closer together and have a slimmer design so smaller hands can hold it better! Our youth model will also be closer to a -5 making it more manageable for younger athletes. This product can still be used as a Split Grip trainer, a short bat and a one hand trainer. Just like the original, it is made from pro grade wood!
