Combat’s Lady Virus VIRSP3 Bat Added to ASA’s Non Approved List

OKLAHOMA CITY, OK, Monday, January 7 2008 — The Amateur Softball Association of America (ASA), the National Governing Body of Softball in the United States, today announced that the softball bat model VIRSP3 Lady Virus manufactured by the CE Composites, Inc. (DBA Combat) is no longer authorized for use in ASA Championship Play.

Other governing bodies that currently use ASA’s bat performance standards such as the NCAA, NFHS, NAIA, NJCAA will continue to use the ASA’s non approved bat list and restrict such bats in 2008 and beyond.
“We are disappointed with the situation but understand that our contract with the ASA requires a bat to be placed on the ASA Non Approved list after it fails consecutive compliance tests”, said Steven Sutherland, President of CE Composites. “We acknowledge full responsibility for this situation. Please visit our website, www.combatsoftball.com, to learn more about our efforts to deal with this situation.”

OKLAHOMA CITY, OK, — The Amateur Softball Association of America (ASA), the National Governing Body of Softball in the United States, today announced that under a resolution adopted by the ASA Board of Directors, bats submitted by manufacturers that were previously
