I knew this was the place to ask. When I got started in this several years ago DD1 started in local Rec League's second year of girls softball (LL) at age 10. DD2' and DD3 got their starts was in a coed T ball league at age 8. They then moved up to coach pitch/machine pitch for a year. My exposure to T ball therefore is very limited.
I got a call from a lady (former local HS player and a fellow shool system employee) that is interested in getting a girls only T-ball league just for the girls. We are talking five and six years old. Personally I have thought about what I perceive to be the inherent advantages: play all summer, escape some of the politics of the rec league, not seeing 70% of the funds we raise going to baseball, etc.
FYI we are a rural area (about 15k population) with one rec league, one HS program, one MS program. We have a few girls playing TB exclusively and a few doing both rec and TB.
What advice, experiences, etc. can the fine folks on here give me?
