I just finished a weekend with several 10&U games, good fields, well managed, all time slots, some really good partners.
Often have 10&U on same fields with same umpires (except the bigger egos and sometimes less mobile) as other ages; just depends on the tournament.
IOW, generally treated the same as other ages.
