3 3 INTRO TO THE LEAGUE: The 3 on 3 League is a fast paced, fun, and competitive half-court basketball league. It differs from a traditional 5 on 5 league in the following areas: number of players on the court (3 per team) number of players on a roster (4-6 players = to 3 substitutes) size of the court (1/2 basketball court with 1 basket) Rules and regulations adjusted for 3 on 3 competition The 3 on 3 League is a Pre-Formed team oriented league. There will be a waitlist available for individual players interested in playing but the registration is primarily for Pre-Formed teams. In the section below, you will find the necessary information to help get your team and players registered and ready to go for the season. INFORMATION YOU SHOULD KNOW TO START: TEAMS ARE NOT REQUIRED TO HAVE A COACH. - A coach or team parent is needed to initially register the team but are not required on game days. Team parents and captains will be the main point of contact on game days. Due to the smaller team size and court size, players should be able to manage their game day strategy amongst themselves. SCHEDULED PRACTICES ARE NOT PROVIDED BY THE LEAGUE. - Due to the smaller roster numbers and fast-paced style of the league, the league will only schedule games. Teams can coordinate practices on their own if they choose but it is not required. TEAMS MUST DESIGNATE A TEAM CAPTAIN. -The team captain will be responsible for checking in their team with the court monitor on game days. They will also be responsible to report the final score to the court monitor and sign out for the team once the game is over. PLAYERS WILL MAKE THEIR OWN CALLS. -During the regular season, the players will call their own fouls and violations which will be recorded by the court monitors. In the post season tournament, referees will be used to officiate the games.
