• Play takes place on one half court with one hoop.
• 1 point per basket, 2 points outside the three-point line. After a team scores, the same team starts play with the ball.
• Matches are 12 Minutes long. In the case of a tie, play continues until one team has scored an additional 2 points
• Teams can bring 1 sub to a game.
• No timeouts
• Matches will start some time in November or early December, and continue in January after the Christmas Break
• Each team will play the others either once or twice in the season (to be decided)
• Following the end of the league season, the highest placed teams will compete in a play-off. Format will be decided at a later date.
• Matches should ideally be played around the time they are scheduled, but can be played later if needs be.
• Captains of each team are responsible for organising where and when the matches are played. Matches can be played either indoors or outdoors.
• Please keep track of the number of points you score, and captains write them down and send them to me so we can have some stats.
• If you want to play indoors, try booking a court at SportsPark far in advance (the slots fill up quickly), and split the cost between players (shouldn't be too expensive). Bare in mind that courts are half the price if booked by someone with a SportsPark membership.
• If playing outside, there are no courts on campus, but Cintra Park is only a few minutes walk from SportsPark so I'd recommend playing there. Potentially find other courts here: https://www.courtsoftheworld.com/United-Kingdom/Reading.
