What I found ironic was a situation I observed Sunday morning. The drawn circles were less than 30 feet from the plate. One player from the 1B dugout apparently decided it was too close and drew her own circle with a bat about 20 feet further down the 1B fence. In fact, she turned her back on an active batter while drawing this "safer" circle.
She was not only only one who decided not to use the provided circles (I don't know that any of them did, actually), but the only one who I observed with her back to the batter while doing so.

As many of you know, Dixie Youth wants the on-deck batter behind the batter. Many kids (and coaches) have trouble making the adjustment as they first venture out into ASA (and alphabet soup) play.
