• The team must win by only one point. Teams score by either regular two-point baskets or by three-point shots taken from outside the three-point circle.
• After a basket has been scored or a foul called, a player must put the ball in play from the three-point line above the foul key.
• On fouls— each foul called will result in 1 point AND the ball for the offended team. After a team has reached 15 points- when fouled, a team will shoot free throws (1 and 1).
• All held balls will be put into play behind the three-point line with possession given alternately to each team.
• On defensive rebounds or steals, players must return the ball by dribble or pass across the three point line before a basket may be attempted. Once across the line, they do not have to pass the ball before shooting.
• After a basket, the team scored upon will put the ball in play.
• The three-second rule will apply to all offensive players
• Substitutions may be made after a basket or an out of bounds play.
• A made shooting foul, under 15 points, will result in a free throw attempt. It’s a live ball, if made, the ball goes to the opposing team.
