In most places you play what's in your town. Dixie Youth is in mine. Granted, Little League is in the next town, but half (or more) of rec is playing with your friends from school, etc.

Understood (and LL is not that much a step up.) I would suggest getting involved and trying to sway the board or tptb to change to a real softball organization.

For a couple of years (2005, 2006) when the league had a fallout with Dixie, baseball went USSSA and softball went Babe Ruth. Not much (if any) of an improvement. The next year they decided to return to Dixie Youth. Babe Ruth softball is just about non-existant in this state.

By the time they were leaving Babe Ruth, one DD had aged out of rec and the other was lost to the dark side (soccer), so my involvement had reached about nil.

NSA allows "either" circle to be used.
