Click on "Handouts" for an updated game schedule.
League Rules:
* games run 2 games at a time, short court wise unless site has 2 gyms
* 8 minute quarters with continuous run of clock
* no fouls for 3/4 but they are to be corrected, 5/6 will be called fouls because we need to teach them how to move their feet and not slap the other players.
* 3/4 will be allowed "few steps" when ball handling, again the idea is to teach them, 5/6 will be called but not as tight as junior high
* no press until after half court
* game time are approximate, if games run ahead please plan to play ahead of schedule.
* host school will provide balls for all teams.
* host school will provide referee for all games. High school kids are fine but need to keep the girls playing CLEAN basketball. This goal of this league is to teach GOOD basketball skills which will make each girl a better player. This is the job of the coach but referee will enforce fouls if play gets too rough
