Youth suits roughly 11 to 13. Sizing varies a little by brand, so measure rather than assume. Some brands also offer a Small Adult size, which is useful for older teenagers between Youth and full Adult.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCan my child use adult gear?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo, and it is not just about comfort. Oversized pads restrict running between wickets, loose gloves slide on impact, and an adult helmet will not sit correctly no matter how far you adjust it - which defeats the point of wearing one.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat is an abdominal guard and does my child need one?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlso called a box or protector.

A traditional glove wraps foam rolls in polyurethane along each finger. The RP Lite uses a shaped rigid insert instead, which covers the same area with less material. In our measurements the RP Lite comes in at [X]g per pair against [Y]g for a comparable traditional roll glove.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat size SG batting gloves do I need?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMeasure in a straight line from the base of your palm, where your wrist starts, to the tip of your middle finger.
