Most local softball associations I've been with are the same. We worked JuCo and high school, as well as local rec leagues under ASA, Little League, and PONY. So we wore the appropriate logoed uniforms for the organization in question. We would never wear ASA stuff for high school ball, or vice versa.

I just find it odd that an official state high school manual would specifically list that their softball umpires come from an association that is affiliated with USA Softball. Why not just say the umpires come from Connecticut National Federation of Softball Umpires, and leave it at that? And is USA Softball okay with that fact?
