We have two types of bats at home. 1 that has got bumps. and 1 that is sort of like a sponge. Which one should I use?

Hi Oliver,
Use the bat with a flat surface and some sponge. Ths is called a reverse pimple rubber. make sure the rubber surface has a little grip to it. If you rub it on your hair it should grip a little.If it doesn't you won't be able to generate any spin on the ball.
You can get some reasonable premade bats that will allow you to develop your game.
