That was 14 tourneys, over 4.5 months. Playing about 3 weekends a month. Each tourney had a 3 game guarantee, so it could have been only 42 games if the kids had always lost their first pool play games, which they didn't, and they had 10 games their week in Cooperstown.

So no, I don't think that's too much, nor do I think we are drinking the koolaid. Please keep in mind, 12u is 6 innings per game....if the mercy rule doesn't come into affect, or the 1:40 minute time constraint.
