I think that you should referee every contest without any comparison to any other game. The first 2 minutes of any game set the tone for the rest of the contest. During that time, the players adjust to the officials, and vice-versa.
In my county, middle school games are played as 5 7-minute quarters. Players cannot double team, and, during the first half of the season they cannot press in the backcourt (a stupid rule if you ask me). In the second half (the last 3 quarters) we play bonus on the 10th foul and double bonus on the 13th foul.
