Speaking from my own son's experience...we do have both; and the community (summer) program just enhances the play on the middle school team. I think if anything having both will make the school based programs stronger; instead of causing problems.

I think more schools who do not have a middle school program should consider the idea. If you keep the children interested and involved past Little League you'll be more likely to field a larger, stronger, more talented team in High School.
