Rules

  1. Four ten minute running quarters except the last 1 minute of the first half and the last 2 minutes of the game if the score is within 15 points. Over Time - 1st OT is 2 minutes. Second OT is Sudden Death.
  2. Five minute warmup and 3 minute halftime.
  3. High School Rules Apply unless stated otherwise.
  4. There is no mercy rule but we ask that if you are up by more than 15 that you use good judgement and not press.
  5. The clock will run during free throws and substitutions.
  6. If the first round games get behind by 30 minutes then we ask the next round of games to play 8 minute running quarters until we are back on schedule. With staggered start times at each gym this should not happen. If all teams arrive promptly and start at the scheduled time the games should not run over (There are a few teams that only have 15 minutes of travel time between games).
  7. We do not want any forfeits. Teams drive too far to not play. Please borrow players if needed.
  8. Each team provides one volunteer to do either the clock or the score book
  9. Coaches fill out rosters on score sheet.

  11. Clock worker - runs clock, post score, and jump ball arrow.
  12. Please use the volunteer worker's passes for your parents who help at the score's table so they will not be charged.
