65-67 mph for an 11u team is way above average.
Way above average, but not unusual. We had two on our team. One was at 70 and in the upper 70's as a twelve year old. Before puberty, a kid can be physically plus or minus three years of his chronological age. An 11U pitcher could be physically fourteen years old. When my son was twelve he was not physically twelve. He was probably physically ten years old. He was five feet, ninety-five pounds. He threw mid sixties. Because he threw hard relative to his size I was very cautious regarding the amount of mound time he received.
