What do you think of playing your 12U outfielders a few steps deep considering it's easier to run forward to catch a fly ball rather than running backwards? Outfielders can always move forward quickly to backup the infield, but judging balls going over their head is usually difficult at this age (from my experience). Another reason I think it might be advantageous is it gets their momentum moving forward so any long throws they need to make will be that much stronger.
