I wish the major sponsors would take as much interest in Dixie Youth as they do in Little League baseball. Microsoft, BP, Dave Thomas Foundation (Wendy's), Toyota, IBM.....all these people pour money into Little League baseball every year. That's why they have their own stadium for the World Series and that's why they get seen on ESPiN. Aren't these kids from Moss Bluff and others across the country every bit as important? I friggin' don't understand it and it pisses me off bigtime!!!

They play 95% USSSA. Here's a link to their team info.

http://www.usssa.com/sports/Team3.asp?TeamID=1840187


LBA = Louisiana Baseball Academy
They have a team in each age group from 9-13

My son will be trying out for next years 9yo team tomorrow.

Little league is a form of Rec ball correct?
USSA is a pay to play gig. Private teams etc.

It's huge in la and Texas.... Not as much in a lot of other states. But here, little league is not even close to USSSA. Most little league teams are USSSA teams just playing enough little league to make it to the world series... Pretty sure Shane's boys play USSSA, Shane??

Little league is a rec league, just as Dixie youth, Pony baseball etc...It just depends on which one your area is affiliated with.

Isn't there a Little League association in the Laffy/LC area? There was a Louisiana team vying for "The" World Series a couple days ago but didn't notice where they were from. I think there was a southwest Louisiana team in the LLWS a couple years ago.
