DSC Spliit 55 Junior English Willow Cricket Bat
The DSC Spliit 55 Junior Cricket Bat is designed for young cricketers who like to play positively and put pressure on the opposition. Made from Grade 3 English Willow, it is suited to club cricket, school cricket and age group cricket where players are ready to step into a higher quality bat.
Built using the same profile concepts found in the senior Spliit range, this junior cricket bat delivers strong performance while maintaining the balance and control younger players need.
Designed for Confident Front Foot Play
The Spliit 55 features thick edges, a high spine and a mid to low swell, creating a profile that helps generate strong ball striking through the front foot. For players who enjoy driving, attacking length bowling and playing with intent, the shape supports an aggressive style of batting.
The traditional blade profile incorporates a dynamic sweet spot that provides a responsive feel across the hitting area. This helps developing cricketers gain confidence when building innings and playing a wider range of shots.
A duckbill toe improves overall balance and contributes to a comfortable pickup. This allows junior players to generate bat speed while maintaining control through the swing.
