Do you have references to support the position that

1.) there is a "huge influx of Asian immigrants" in Silicon Valley?

2.) Little leagues in Silicon Valley are folding each year?

3.) the above 2 have a proven connection?

Here's one example:  Cupertino, CA census (2000 -- 50% White, 44% Asian; 2010 -- 31% White, 63% Asian).  Little Leagues -- 2000 (Cupertino National, Cupertino American, Tri-Cities).  2018 -- (Cupertino National/Tri-Cities merged, Cupertino American merged with Moreland).  Obviously, now way to prove any connection between 1 and 2.  Can only show stats.  But 4 leagues down to 2.  From what I know...might have 1-2 kids in a 30 kid Elementary school classroom playing Little League (Soccer would be at least 5-6 maybe more).
