I use TAv mode a lot for U7 soccer. I set the aperture to F6.7, F8 or F9.5 (I like a bit of DOF - U7's soccer is played on small fields and the kids bunch up and I want to get as many expressions as possible clear in the shot), the shutter speed set to 1/500s, 1/750s or 1/1000s and I let the ISO vary between my set limits of ISO 100-1600. The combination I choose depends on whether the day is sunny or overcast.
Here's an ISO analysis from a game where I used two different TAv settings:
Setting 1: 1/1000s, F8
Count: 136 shots
ISO 280: 90 shots
ISO 400: 32 shots
ISO 560: 10 shots
ISO 800: 1 shot
ISO 1100: 3 shots (sideline throw-ins from a shadowed part of the field & with dark backgrounds)
Setting 2: 1/750s, F9.5
Count: 59 shots
ISO 280: 45 shots
ISO 400: 11 shots
ISO 560: 3 shots
Here's an example, taken at 230mm FL (so DOF is reduced), 50% cropped and adjusted for back lighting, showing the "group" aspect of it (you can click to follow):
