My experience doing these...take doing jerkball and put 6 players on a compressed court (usually outside in the sun). Then watch combustion at work.

No they aren't all that bad, but I've had several dicey encounters over the years doing these....One time was I was doing a MS 3-3 game and the adult games were on the far court...1/2 through my game I observe about 5-6 police officers run by my court and head to the far ones as a melee had broken out between two teams in the adult leagues.

This was a charity suburban tournament too ....
