Hmmm... if you have a 14 y/o who's bat you worry about - you probably either have a bat that is too expensive for this level/team or you need to raise some money to buy his team some bats.

The bottom line is there is no way to not look like a jerk. If you don't want them using it talk to the coach, but don't expect a positive outcome... or leave it at home.

JMHO

I don't think there is a graceful way to handle this either.

I got my son a combat B1 which he loves, but more importantly can handle very well. We have ben using it all winter training. Now that we have practice some of his teamates also like the bat. I went out and bought a brand new one for my son on e-bay at a nice price, so when someone wants to use his bat they can just not the new one which is his personal bat and everybody is happy.

Buy him a new wood bat
