Buying Bats:
South Ottawa Little League provides team bats at each level, but players are welcome to bring their own bats as long as they meet Little League standards which was implemented the new USA Baseball Bat Standard on Janury 1, 2018.

USABat Standard bats must be used in the Major and below divisions. Either USABat or BBCOR bats must be used in Intermediate and Junior divisions. At the Senior division, all bats must meet the BBCOR standard. So while the information on some of these websites may be helpful for determine the size of bat you should purchase, you must make sure that bat you purchase is a "legal" bat, otherwise your player will not be allowed to use it for games or practices.
