I don’t know now and I didn’t know when my kids were in school how sports were organized either in school or outside of school. I don’t remember any of my kids’ friends being in organized sports. My daughter did get the experience of team play on National Academic League. I’m guessing since we live in an inner city school district that there wasn’t and isn’t much pay to play going on among the public school kids. We do, however, have a new MLB Urban Youth Academy so that should enhance opportunities for kids to play.
