Now we don’t want to create a game that is vastly different more a game
for juniors that will allow confidents and talent to grow.

So I would recommend lowering the height (this is just logical IMHO),
encouraging flat throws from the pull (I don’t think blade pulls give
the D team an advantage) and moving the point of start to the front of
the endzone if no attempt is made at the pull.

You could also look at re-pull if the disc is aggressive or dangerous.
The re-pull is something thing the new rules have not covered and
something I have never seen called either. It might be a good thing to
encourage people to make pulls that are nice.

No one seams happy all of the new rules though. I have been to several
tournaments this year that play the drops don’t matter part but not the
brick or take it from the back if you don’t bid.
