Tournament Rules and Regulations
-
Play will consist of two halves, each of which is 16 minutes stopped time. (For 10-under to 13-under, each half is 14 minutes stopped time except for playoff games.)
-
Halftime will be three minutes.
-
If necessary, overtime will be two minutes. If the game is still tied after two two-minute overtime periods, the teams will play without a clock, first to score three points wins.
-
Teams get two full timeouts (60 seconds in length) and one 30-second timeout per game. For each overtime session, each team will get an additional 30-second timeout.
-
A player will be disqualified from the game after five fouls.
-
Seven team fouls in a half will lead to a one-and-one penalty, while ten fouls will be a two-shot penalty.
-
Mercy rule: if the scoring margin is 20 or more points with less than four minutes to play, play will continue as running time except during a timeout.
-
Any player or coach who is ejected from a game during the tournament is automatically suspended for his team’s next game. If a player or coach is ejected from a second game, he is automatically suspended for the remainder of the tournament. There will be no exceptions to this rule.
-
Only two coaches (head coach and one assistant) are allowed on the bench for each game and are allowed to get in for free. There is a roster limit of 12 players.
-
Forfeits/tardiness: A game will be a forfeit if a team is more than 15 minutes late. If a team arrives within 15 minutes of the tip, the first half will be played with eight minutes and 10 points will be awarded to the team that arrived on time.
-
Each team is responsible for either a timer or a scorekeeper at each game.
-
Teams must bring their own practice balls. The game ball is the responsibility of the head referee.
-
Roster rule: a player’s age is based on his age as of September 1, 2012.
-
Unless otherwise stated, college rules apply.
Tie-Breaker Scenarios
First tie-breaker is head-to-head result
Second tie-breaker is point differential – note that the maximum point differential for a team is 15 points. Forfeits are scored +15 for the winning team.
Third tie-breaker is points allowed – the team allowing the fewest points will advance so long as they did not forfeit along the way.
