Rule change discussion tonight - need your advice

[CoachCER]

My 7th-8th grade league has used 4 10-minute running quarters for the past twelve years, with the clock stopping for the last 2 minutes of the game.
Our younger age groups transitioned to 8-minute quarters a couple of years ago.
Personally, I would prefer going to halves, but the leagues all have rules regarding minimum number of quarters played, so staying with the quarters has helped us monitor that rule.
Our younger ages had "normal" games before they came under my organization's umbrella, and keeping them on track was an ongoing nightmare.
