I used to coach a very low level youth team as well *** officiate.
We had a nothing game (in terms of standing) where only two refs showed up. The coach from the other team knew me from officiating, and actually suggested that I step in as a third so that they could play instead of calling the game.
Only part about it that I found hard was - not throwing too many flags against my kids for small infractions (because they SHOULD know better!). The other team was happy to have been able to play, and didn't complain about any calls.
