3on3 Tourney
Three players on court per team. Subs are allowed as long as registered on the team. Male and female
teams will all play in the same age divisions. 3rd through 6th grade divisions will use women’s size 28.5
inch basketball. 7th and 8th grade division will use men’s size 29.5 inch basketball. If a team in the 7th and
8th grade division has three female players, a 28.5 inch women’s ball will be used for that game.
Each game will be played to 7 points or 10 minutes long with a running clock. All made baskets will be
worth 1 point including free throws and 3-Point shots. Fouls shots will be a max of one free throw
attempt per foul.
All possession changes will require teams to take the ball and the player fully past the 3-Point line at the
top of the key before advancing the ball. After a made basket or dead ball, the ball must be checked by
the defense to the offense behind the 3-Point line at the top of the key. After checking the ball, the
offensive player with the ball is allowed to dribble, pass, or shoot. After any made basket, the possession
changes to the other team unless the shooter was fouled in the act of shooting.
Fouls will be called by the referee. A foul called in the act of shooting and missed, will result one free
throw attempt worth one point. A foul called in the act of shooting and made, will result in one point and
the same team getting the ball back again. A non-shooting foul will result in a team foul and the ball will
be given back to the offense. The third team foul, including shooting fouls, will result in a bonus free
throw situation resulting in one free throw. Players cannot foul out of a game.
The tourney brackets will be an automated random draw. Each team will play rock-paper-scissors for first
possession. The three-second rule in the free throw lane will apply. Substitutions may be made after a
basket or a dead ball. No timeouts are allowed. A team may start or finish a game with less than three
players on the court.
If the 10 minute time period ends, the team with the most points is the winner. If the game is tied after
time has expired, each player at the end of regulation (3 players max) will each shoot one free throw. The
team that makes the most free throws is the winner of the game. If the free throw situation results in a
tie, the same six players will each shoot one free throw again and the process will continue until there is a
winner. Good sportsmanship is expected. Any issues will cause the necessary team to be eliminated from
the tourney.
3-Point Competition
Each age division will be separate. 3rd/4th grade will shoot from 15ft. Other two groups will shoot from
high school 3-Point line. Each player will get 60 seconds to shoot as many shots as possible. Rebounder
helpers will be available. The top four players with the most made shots or tied for those made shots will
have a second 60 second shoot-out. Tie-breakers will be an additional 30 second shoot-outs until there is
a winner.
