Well, one of the largest (widest) strike zones in recorded LL history made it all the way to the LLWS this year, so what's to worry about?

12 YO batters should not be 'working walks', as a general rule. I hesitate to say 'make 'em swing the bat', cuz you aren't MAKING them do anything, but their mindset should be in that direction. 2 or 3 batters walk on a MLB-size strike zone, and then *every* subsequent batter keeps his bat on his shoulder. Not good.

I recommend that anything at the lower part/half of the uniform logo should be the top of your zone. Just my opinion.
