[quote=Anonymous]I have heard some say that the competition in CA and some other sport hot spots has less to do with the weather and a lot to do with the fact that there are so many good teams you can have friendlies that are very competitive without much driving etc. A kid who wants to get better and that is willing to put in the work can do a lot on their own if parents facilitate. For softball in particular if a kid starts lifting and hitting a lot they may find themselves at a new level come spring. Getting really strong seems to be a real advantage in softball and that does not require warm weather. I assume the same in baseball but have observed only softball and have seen kids really improve by putting time in at the gym and getting really strong. [/quote]
