Wood is too costly...it could break on the first swing. Also, many believe the game moves too slow with a wood bat in the hands of a youth player.

Which league is considered the Senior league?

The national league "Senior League" refers to the youth league after "Little League" but before High School. Senior League players are usually between the ages of 13-15 and/or grades 7-9. Most Senior Leagues allow bats larger than the 2.25" Little League approved bat diameter, and bats can be lighter than the High School -3 minimum weight/length, but the bat weight ratio limits vary with the specific senior league organization. For example, Catholic Youth Athletic Association limits grade 7-8 bats to -7 weight ratio (no lighter). So, be careful when shopping for a "Senior League" bat as the rules for different organizations are less consistent than they are for the 9-12 year olds that usually follow Little League rules.

Why are MLB players not allowed to have metal bats?

An aluminum bat is lighter and stronger than wood, children of little league age are often times not strong enough to swing a wooden bat in a length and barrel size to be competitive. It has increased the hitting ability of the younger players and added to a more exciting game. The above answer is absolutely correct, but I think all aluminum bats everywhere should be banned. There's nothing like "the crack of the bat", with the youth of today are not experiencing.
