ASA slow pitch softball, fast pitch bats

Question
Hi I work for FSU intramurtals and a player asked us to look up if fast pitch bats were illegal for slow pitch softball. I mean it seems like a simple no, but we go by ASA rules and we could not find anything stating no fastpitch bats, just that it needs the ASA logo and the Weight has to be under 34inches, and no more than 38ounces(ASA Rule 3,section 1, B). So there are many bats that say Fastpitch but meet those requirements. So, Are Fastpitch bats illegal in slowpitch softball. And if so where can i go to find verification, for future referance.

Answer
Hi Paul,

I know bat manufacturers are now making what they call "slow pitch" or "fast pitch" bats.

A bat marked "official softball" is softball bat, is a softball bat, legal for any softball game (I don't want to leave out my modified friends here).

For verification just go back to the rules you quoted me.  They don't say "official fast pitch" or "official slow pitch".  Any bat that meets 3-1-a-k is a legal bat for any ASA softball game.

ps:  I'm waiting for the manufacturers to come out with a "modified" bat.
