Hey DFP,
I wanted to ask other members how often events (practices and games) are held for their rec softball leagues (8u or 10u)? For us, it's just one practice and one game (2 events) per week in season. Our league's all star teams are getting smoked by other leagues that do 3 events per week.
It's not only that they play more, but I have anecdotes of good players have moving to cross town leagues to seek higher levels of play.
What's crazy to me is that our baseball league is miles ahead. They actually separate each age groups into two separate leagues (top half play in one league, and bottom half play in another). Their baseball all star teams routinely win tournaments. It's night and day.
As a parent of only girls, it feels like our softball league is just an afterthought and a place for parents to park their daughters while they put the bulk of their attention on their son's development.
