Lots of Little League Players, Not So Many in High School

I am working on getting some statistics on how many kids playing little league actually make it to high school, college, and professional teams. I was just wondering if you had any of this information. Thanks and any information would be of a great help.

From Host Mom:
For this type of information, I suggest you contact Little League itself at http://www.littleleague.org/ to see if they have the statistics. There is also Pony League at http://www.pony.org which is active in our area. You may be able to find some information doing a Google search and searching for statistics. The numbers do get smaller as the player moves up the chain. We had 300 Little League players, ages 5-15, but there are under 20 players on the high school baseball team.
Host mom, Jean
