Actually, there are between 200 and 300 TEAMS depending on the season, and there are 3 seasons per year. So there are thousands of players, and probably another couple thousand people who come to watch games over the course of a season. Plus umpires, scorers, evaluation staff, etc. And finally the tournaments which draw people to The Villages. I recall last year the Canseco brothers brought their team to a tournament.
All amenities need maintenance. They just don't all make the front page. And much of the softball maintenance was for safety purposes.
As far as the striping goes, it wasn't even recommended by the engineer who did the study so who can say they would be any safer.
