I have coached a coupla hundred AAU games, seen several hundred more, and have personally been around less than 5 games that were out of control. And I think that if the refs had addressed it, it could have been mitigated.
That said, AAU is less closely regulated than HS and the risk is slightly higher. And my experience is girls not boys, so other results may vary. And my experience is mainly Mid Atlantic (MD, DC, VA, PA), went to YBOA nationals last year and saw more variety. Depending on where you are, you may see different things. But you will see the best players in an age group, get used to fast paced ball that is played full court and physical. You will have to beon your toes, and I think you can benefit much more from these games than any games other than school leagues.
