Modified rules that are left in place as the players age up are actually holding back learning the true pace and strategy of the game. Watching modified rules at a 12u level is almost disgraceful when there are 12u players that are competing at such an extraordinarily better level. The disparity is massive.
If you're in a league where everyone's that committed, fine. If you're not, if you don't have modified rules, even at 12u, you're going to have kids quit who can't hack it at 11 but maybe would by 13-14 and now you're wondering why the 14u/JV and up teams suck and have trouble finding kids.
