WOW! I have never seen this age play basketball. But my 5 yo son played tball this year. They bent the rules a lot: bat around the order every inning. Reverse the order every inning. Nobody gets out. There's a coach at every base. No score is kept. No umpire. Just kids having fun getting to hit the ball and run the bases. And everybody gets a treat when its over.
At that age, I can't imagine that you'd enforce the rules of basketball at all. Just let the coaches try to teach them the fundamentals of the game and let them play. Don't need no stinking refs
