Actually, conditioning at 12u is not a waste of time or money. I currently coach a 12u team that spends 2 hours a week doing conditioning, and you wouldn't believe the difference I've seen in my girls. For one thing, we can outrun and outlast any team out there. More importantly though, it has built a sense of confidence in my girls that is unbelievable!!! My girls know that they can outrun you, and they expect to. It also has helped pick up the intensity in our regular practices. They're so used to doing the conditioning at 100% that has spilled over into the drills and situations.
All in all, it has done many, many great things for our team. And, its setting the ground work now for when they get older. My kids enjoy the conditioning, as well.
