Break minimization problem is one of the representative problems in sport scheduling. The aim of this problem is to find a home-away assignment that minimizes the number of breaks, that is, the number of occurrences of consecutive games held either both at away or both at home for a team. In this paper, Break Minimization Problem of U12 basketball league games (BMPU12) is first introduced. In the experiments, we utilize the real data of U12 basketball league games played in Hyogo prefecture in 2018 and find the minimal number of breaks for it.
