Ya gotta admit. If the coaches and parents don't get in the way this age and their enthusiasm can be a lot fun.

Reminds me of a CYO game I scored a few years ago. Our team was mostly 4th graders playing in a mostly-6th grade division (don't even get me started on that aspect). In this particular game, we were losing by 20+ in the final minute, but the kids played liked it was a tie game and the next basket would win. I'm always impressed when kids at that age seem to want to play hard, regardless of what the scoreboard says.
