I also felt that they were inciting their own team and frustrating the opponents. They were screaming about rules that don't exist (ex: 3 seconds during a throw in, they also thought that a FT shooter only has 5 seconds to shoot) as well as screaming foul on nearly every missed shot. Keep in mind, this game was a blowout and there team was ahead.
Again - I appreciate the responses. I didn't address them the whole time and I think I should have.

I think you should have too.
If you can pull it off just stop the game and quietly appeal to them as adults to take a closer look at where they are and the age of the players.
If not that then pick one & just toss 'em. That *always* works.
