HOUSE RULES & EXPECTATIONS

1. Physical Play & Sportsmanship
• We allow more contact than typical leagues, but no blatant fouls (charging, pushing, slapping) or unsportsmanlike behavior.
• We use a two-strike policy—on your third offense, you’re out of the league.

2. Call Your Own Fouls & Scoring
• Shooting fouls = automatic points (no free throws).
• Non-shooting fouls = +1 and a turnover if needed. Keep it fair and keep it flowing.

3. Continuous Clock
• We keep stoppages to a minimum. Make subs swiftly, with a quick courtside hand check.

4. 3-Second Rule
• Offensively “parking” in the paint is a turnover—stay on the move.

5. One Jump Ball (At Tip-Off)
• After the initial jump ball, the non-starting team begins the next period.
• If two players wrestle for the ball, let go within a second and return it to whoever had possession.
