The 10 & 11 year olds were in fifth and sixth grade, as posted by Billy. I don't care what group they were part of or how "competitive" their league is; they're still freaking kids. And imo, when you're officiating you should be making some allowance for that.

IOW maybe wait until they get selected to a Grade 7 competitive team before you start treating them like high school varsity players.

That was my point.
