1. Each
team is guaranteed to play a minimum of 3 games. Ties will be broken
based on head-to-head play. If there is a 3-way tie that cannot be broken
by head-to-head play, the tie will be broken by:
a. Fewest cumulative points
b. Largest cumulative point differential
2. The winner of a coin
toss will receive possession of the ball to start.
3. Games will be played to
15 points or 15 minutes, whichever occurs first.
4. If there is no 3-point
arc on your court, all baskets will be scored as 1 point. On courts that
do have a 3-point arc, all baskets will be scored as 1 point inside the
3-point arc and 2 points from behind the 3-point arc.
5. Teams must win by 2
points only if the game doesn’t go the full 15 minutes. At the end of 15
minutes the team with the highest score will advance. If a game ends in a
tie, the teams will continue to play until one team scores a basket.
6. There will be no free
throws until the opposing team reaches team-foul limit (7 team fouls). On
and after the 7th team foul, every foul will result in one free throw
(worth 1 point). If the basket is made and the player gets fouled (on or
after the 7th foul), the basket counts and the player receives 1 free
throw. If a player is fouled while attempting a 3-pointer (and misses the
shot), the player will receive 2 free throws (only on or after the 7th
team foul). On a made 3-pointer, the player will receive 1 free throw.
7. All free throws are live
on a miss (offense can go back up and score; defense must clear the ball)
8. The ball will change possession
after all baskets.
9. Jump balls go to the
defense.
10. The ball must be “taken
back” on every change of possession. Failure to do so will result in the
loss of possession and the loss of any point scored during that
possession.
11. The defense players
must check the ball before it is in play. Ball must be passed into play.
12. Dunking is legal, but
offensive and defense goaltending is not permitted.
13. After all fouls, or
when the ball goes out-of-bounds, the ball will be taken at the top of the
key (check line).
14. Each team is allowed
one 1-minute time out.
15. The top, sides, and
bottom of the backboard are in bounds.
16. All decisions made by
the referees are final!
