[quote=Anonymous]I’m the Pp who posted the list above and thought of one more difference in the quality of play for younger boys in baseball versus younger girls in softball. This applies to younger ages- frankly, girls softball attracts far fewer girls at ages 6-9 than boys baseball at similar ages. In a lot of places, pretty much every boy will try a couple of seasons of baseball as a rite of passage. I think softball doesn’t attract the same breadth of girls and more of the girls who want to play choose it deliberately and come in with basic skills, so there is a narrower range of ability levels. Baseball is more common for young kids and therefore attracts a wider variety of skill levels at those ages, which makes the game less consistent and slower-paced.[/quote]
