Asa is an organization run by insurance brokers with the most significant dollar goal of getting insurance commissions and insurance administration fees. PONY started as a Pennsylvania organization called to protect our neighborhood youth. Thinking it was better to get kids onto ballfields as opposed to buying and selling drugs on town street corners. The PONY concept struck accord across much of America, particularly because of the old LL rules that made 12 the oldest age allowed of play Little League. Because of the nationwide interest, PONY is now know as protect our nation's youth.

In New Jersey, PONY is now an important organization for girls fastpitch softball. An organization not without critics and not without significant challenge from NSA and a couple of other newcomers. But, at least PONY is working to let girls play competitive softball in NJ. ASA is doing absolutley nothing in NJ for young girls.
