#1, find a girl who truly wants to play and have her show up. They have to turn her away in order for you to take any action.

Very simple. Start a girls league and don't allow boys in.

Fact from fiction, truth from diction. With all this whoopla about equality we know it cannot be in all instances. Men and women ARE different. Now some may say it is only 10% difference or less but they are huge percents. Let say the feminist get their way and it comes down to "any interested player" can try out. Then you have girls and you have boys. Lets say this league with all the way with gender invisability, they placed the players on teams by lot, coaches choice, however they do it. And one team got stuck with 60% girls and another team ended up with 70% guys. If the guy filled team dominated, and the gal laden team got mopped 83% of their games are the feminist going to cry foul? Or are they going to just accept the fact that that team was not any good, with out making excuses like the other teams had more boys?

At that age, some girls are bigger and faster than average boys.
Your logic therefore doesn't follow, sorry!

1. Make sure that some parents send some girls to the tryouts.
2. If they are turned away, complain to the national Little League organization and to the press. You have to have evidence first.
3. If that doesn't work, complain to the sponsors of the teams (note each LL team usually has a sponsor) and threaten a boycott. Money talks.

Good luck!
