RULES

• Fees are non-refundable and not transferrable.
• Amateur rules and guidelines will be implemented but stated rules herewith will supersede any conflict in the Amateur rules.
• BayHoops reserve the rights to ban/disqualify players or teams for misbehavior, unsportsmanlike attitude, and failure to adhere gyms guideline and policies (specific gym policies where we conduct or host basketball games like league, tournament or pickup games.)
• Respect for everyone is expected. Being disrespectful is a ground for getting banned from any BayHoops future activities.
• A player needs to play 2 regular season games to be eligible to play in the Post Season. Considerations are to made in cases of defaulted games, family emergencies, and injuries.
• The organizer can be a temp sub in a team to avoid or minimize forfeited games.
• A technical foul can be called for any unsportsmanlike conduct. Ejection from the game is called out if a player is called for a 2nd technical foul.
• Teams can advance the ball when a timeout is called. (3 timeouts in a game regardless of period).
• OGs (definition in a certain degree), should have at least 24 minutes of playing time.
• Mandatory substitution requires that all players on the bench should come on the floor to play.
• Player mandatory substitution every 6 minutes.
• Regular Season Shot Clock will be implemented on the last 2 minutes (24 seconds) of the 2nd half.
• Post Season Shot Clock will be implemented on the last 6 minutes (24 seconds) of the 2nd half. In the absence of shot clock due to the gym’s limitation of not having the shot clock device functioning, the referees will use their best judgement if a player/team is/are intentionally not making a play to score with the purpose of just running the clock to their advantage.
• If there are circumstances that a game is stopped because of power outage or any similar situation that we can not control, the rule initially is to postpone the game and will be re-scheduled from the time it stopped (game minutes left to play) and keeping the score, fouls, and anything related to the records in the stat sheet.
• Game clock will start to run on a designated time schedule even though the players have not stepped in on the playing court. It is the players responsibility to be ready to play on time, and on schedule.
