Men's 35+ & Women's League Rules

​

All regular basketball rules in effect.

​

- Captains are only there to manage communication with their team.

- No substitutions on the fly. Wait for a whistle and a call in from the ref. The refs are also good at seeing when somebody needs a sub and will blow the whistle for you.

- League will not be governed by equal time. It is up to the team as a whole to ensure all players get equal playing time.

- All stats taken are a luxury. If there is a discrepancy with any of the stats on the sheet, just remember that what is up on the scoreclock is what is correct.

- Clock will be runtime except for free throws, time outs, and all whistles under 2 minutes.

- This is a competitive/recreational league. It is meant for a good time and good exercise. Please, if there is a problem with the reffing, they are human beings, have a conversation with them like a human being. There is no tolerance for abuse of the officials.

1st - 1 free throw for other team and retain possession.
