Game Format and Rules:
* All coaches must use and have the CPBA score sheet. These can be printed directly off our website on the Forms page listed under the 2022 Holiday Tournament header. Other score sheets or writing it on a piece of paper will result in an administrative technical foul and we will begin the game with no jump ball, 2 free throws for the opponent and possession to the opponent.
* (2) 20 minute running clock halves
* Stopped clock last :30 seconds of the first half and last 1 minute of the second half
* 1st overtime - 2 minute overtime with a running clock, stopped the last 30 seconds..
If still tied 2nd overtime - we jump the ball and we will put (2) more minutes on the clock (running- no stopping) it is the first team to score (2) or more points. For this second overtime if no one scores (2) points at the end of this second overtime the game will end as a tie. If a team has scored (1) point they will win. If no one has scored the game will be recorded as a tie.
