Assuming that U12 is 6th grade and below......at what age are you surprised that players get a red-card. Also, at what age can't a coach control a player from getting a red-card.
I suppose that there could be a biphasic pattern i.e. really young kids don't get red cards and older players know how to reign themselves in......so the middle age groups are playing so hard and still to immature to control themselves. For this age group, I would assume that the coach and/or ref needs to exert more control.
