In the off-season I always ask for the first 3 games on Saturday and/or Sunday morning for AAU. They usually start at 8:00am.

It's fairly standard for our local kids rec league to start 3rd grade games at 8:00am on Saturdays due to limited gym availability.

Many years ago I worked a boys HS rec weekend tournament and the final game started at 11:00pm on Sunday night. We didn't finish the game until after midnight. The sponsor then took my partner and me out to Denny's for a snack. I got home about 1:30am. Fortunately, (or unfortunately depending on your point of view) my wife was asleep.

Our earliest/latest always coincide with State Tournament start times. 9:30 am (earliest) 9:10 pm (latest).

Not totally unusual for an off-season, not school game. I do not think I have ever had a game earlier than 9:00 for a school game. Usually do not work early Saturday games so I could be wrong and not remember.

Peace
