I wonder about:
14U kids using Drop 5's when they should be swinging BBCOR
Which Academy programs have kids use Shaved Bats for PBR exit velo testing
What happens when a kid gets seriously injured by a blast from a shaved bat, especially since most have already waived liability. The waiver of liability applies to the fields & programs, but what about the kid using an illegal bat?

The bat shaving companies typically cover their tails. They state bat shaving is for hitting exhibitions only. But if my kid got injured by a shaved bat I would sue everyone connected with the swing of the bat (bat shaving company - they know why they're shaving bats, the family that purchased the bat for their kid for providing an illegal weapon on the field of play, the team he plays for for allowing the bat to be used and the tournament for allowing the bat to be used. It is illegal to use a shaved bat in a game.
