Way to stereotype on your small sample.

Travel softball around here is usually serious and a lot more time than travel baseball, which does maybe 1 tournament a season and just a few more games than rec but calls itself "travel" until HS when they may actually travel or do more. Most travel softball is a lot of tournaments. McLean Magic might be way to go. Not much in the way of 8u but if serious play up to 10u.[/quote]

NP: my kids play both baseball and softball (club/travel for both) and our experience has been the same as OP’s- up until 12U. Seems only the more serious girls stick around after that. The boys are serious much much earlier. But I suppose it depends on the area. [/quote]

OP here and I see it with other teams, too. I’m not saying all young boys are more serious than all young girls—my DD is more serious about softball than a couple her older brother’s friends about their sports.

Anyway, we are in Oakton (but play sports in Vienna) and her birthday year is 2012. McLean is close enough so may check that out. Also interested in sort of an add-on to rec as mentioned in one post. I know some kids who play travel baseball as a supplement to the all mighty LL. [/quote]
