I've never coached, but I have heard pitchers say that they will often decide whether to throw to a base or pitch before toeing the rubber. Knowing in advance what they're going to do, especially at age 11, might minimize improvisation, guessing, and accidents, any of which might cause a balk.
Some youth leagues don't call balks on 11U teams. You might check on that as well.
