Running time is used except for the last 2 minutes of the game where the clock will stop for all fouls, violations, jump balls, out-of-bounds, and time-outs unless one team is ahead by 15 points or more. If the teams are tied at the end of regulation time, they will play consecutive three minute overtime periods of running clock until an overtime period ends with an untied score and a winner is decided.

During the overtime period, teams continue toward the same goal as they did in the second half. Each team is awarded an additional time-out, in addition to any remaining time-outs they had before time expired.

Each team is allowed 2 time-outs per half. Any player on the court may request a time-out when their team is in control of the ball or during a dead ball situation; however, a time-out will not be granted when the opposing team has possession of the ball.

Intentional, flagrant personal, and flagrant technical fouls are penalized with an automatic two points awarded to the offended team and possession of the ball. Flagrant fouls fall into two categories:
- Flagrant 1: a foul that puts an opponent’s safety and health at risk due to excessive contact
- Flagrant 2: a foul with both excessive contact and intent to harm the opponent Flagrant 2 fouls will result in an automatic ejection from the game, with suspensions to be determined upon review.

Technical fouls are penalized with an automatic two points, with the ball returned to the point of interruption.
