GENERAL RULES / INFORMATION

  • All spectators aged 18 and over will be charged an admission fee at the sites ($10 for a weekend pass).  Upon paying the admission fee, they will be given a card they must show each time they enter any facility, therefore admission will only be charged one time the entire weekend.
  • A team’s age division is determined by the highest grade of any team member. For example, a 6th grader CANNOT play on a 5th grade team.
  • A player may only play on one team during the tournament regardless of division.
  • Any coach with more than one team in the tournament MUST have an alternate coach for either team due to possible scheduling conflicts.  Games will not be scheduled around coach’s conflicts.
  • Each team must furnish a worker for the table.  One team will keep track of the scoresheet, the other will run the clock.

  • Medals will be awarded for 1st, 2nd & 3rd place in each division.

  • 1st overtime will be 2 minutes with clock stoppage according to Missouri State High School Rules.  2nd overtime will be sudden death.
  • If at any point during the game, a team takes a 20 points lead or more we will play the “MERCY RULES”, meaning the clock will continuously run until the half or game expires.  The clock will only stop on official time-outs, injury, or any other time deemed necessary by the officials.
  • There will be no pressing when a team leads by 20.

TIMEOUTS
