Game
Rules:
·
First ball will go to team winning a coin toss
conducted by referee
·
During an inbound, team A with the ball must pass
ball to teammate before scoring
·
If Team A scores, Team B must take ball out from
behind the base-line. After the inbounds
all three points (2 feet and the ball) must go behind the 3-point line and then
Team B will be allowed to attempt a shot.
Team A may defend any position and attempt to prevent Team B from taking
ball behind the 3-point line (Pressing).
·
If a player on Team A is fouled then Team A will
take possession of ball at top of the key, unless it is a shooting foul or Team
B has more than 5 team fouls. The player
committing the foul will have a foul counted against him.
Game Rules continued:
·
If Team A shoots the ball and does not hit the rim
or backboard, Team B must still take the ball behind the 3-point line. No cherry picking.
·
Any ball that goes out of bounds will be checked
up at the top of the key. The player for
Team A has to pass to a teammate before the ball is in play. Team B may defend once the ball is checked.
·
First team to
score 30 points wins the game
·
Number of games played by each team will depend on
the total number of teams playing in the tournament.
·
Two teams with most wins will move on to the final
game. The final game will be a half court game with same rules
as all other games.
