Maybe this just isn't a sort of league I'm familiar with.
Even at the rec level - i.e. disregarding full-time travel teams -- everywhere I'm familiar with is competitive by that age, not always very good to be sure, but the basics are intact for enough players that the game is recognizable. Maybe those exist, I just don't have anyone involved with them to be aware of it.
