Stacking the allstar teams is exactly what the Little League in Plano, Texas, did for years, with the tacit but unwritten approval of the district and state offices. Due to the constant complaints of other leagues in their district, the state finally started putting pressure on them to "do it right." Consequently, Plano left Little League and switched to USSSA tournament baseball.

Little League's rather strict rules on how local leagues must be structured is one of the reasons participation in Little League, both at the player and league level, has been going down in recent years.
