1. Each team must register at least three players on its roster on or before the date of the tournament. Four players max per team. No additions, deletions and/or changes may be
made after games have started.
2. Teams using players not officially registered or using falsified information on rosters will be automatically disqualified from the event. Team captains are responsible and will be held accountable for all information.
3. The playing format of the tournament will be determined once all teams have entered. The format may even vary by division, depending on the number of teams within a division. The tournament director reserves the right to change the format based on external events. If there not at least 4 teams per division then a 3-point and free throw contest will be submitted in place of a 3v3 tourney.
4. The court monitor will be the official timekeeper/scorekeeper and will be responsible for mediating all disputes. He/she has the right to overturn a call on the court if there is a justified reason to do so. The court monitor’s interpretation of the rules is final. In the event the court monitor cannot solve a dispute, a coin flip will be made to determine the outcome of the dispute.
5. Physically or verbally threatening or abusing a court monitor (or refferee ) is cause for
immediate disqualification.
