This is not rocket science, Besides the fact they can play all year here is something that I think is the biggest issue and why everyone thinks California Teams are so much better then Ohio Teams. Stats are for A.S.A. 18u and under in girls fastpitch registered teams.

9 ) Northern California ASA = 2,147
29 ) Sacramento ASA = 859
32 ) Oakland ASA = 737
47 ) Greater San Joaquin ASA = 424
Total California A.S.A Girls Fastpitch Teams = 12,863
Total Girl Players in California 12863(teams) X 12(players per team) = 154,356 Girl Fastpitch players

48 ) Cleveland ASA = 420
62 ) Cincinnati ASA = 252
Total Ohio A.S.A Girls Fastpitch Teams = 2,764
Total Girl Players in Ohio 2764(teams) X 12(players per team) = 33,168 Girl Fastpitch players
