MR. BASKETBALL & MISS BASKETBALL SANTA SLAMFEST DOUG KOSTER - TOURNAMENT DIRECTOR 5003 AVENUE G PLACE * KEARNEY, NE 68847 MOBILE PHONE: 308-440-7267 E-mail: doug@misterbasketball.com Twitter: @MB_Tournaments Visit our website at misterbasketball.com! Dear Coaches, Welcome to the 2017 Santa Slamfest! We are excited to have 63 teams from Ogallala to Seward participating. Enclosed you will find all of the brackets and game rules. All games will be played at the UNK Health & Sports Center (Sunday), located at 25th Street and 15th Avenue. The gyms will be open 30 minutes prior to the first game each day. The site abbreviations on the schedules are as follows: SUNDAY: UN = UNK North Court UM = UNK Middle Court US = UNK South Court UH = UNK HPER Gym Team head coaches and one assistant must check at the gate get their coaches pass. Medals will be awarded to first place teams in the 4-team divisions and to 1st & 2nd place in the 6-team divisions. Fans & players must enter on the west side of the Health & Sports Center. Seating is limited to the bleachers on the west half of the arena. Parents are not allowed on the floor level. Please read and beware of the rules. Also note that clock operators will be provided for all games, but the first team listed on the schedule (or top team in bracket) must provide one person to sit at the table and assist with the scorebook. If one team has a regular book-keeper, that person can be the official scorer and keep the score in their book, but we ask that they sit next to the clock operator at the table. If you have any questions, please contact me at 308-440-7267 or doug@misterbasketball.com. I look forward to seeing all of you at the Santa Slamfest! Sincerely, Doug S. Koster

SANTA SLAMFEST RULES Teams & fans should be at the gym prepared to play 30 minutes before game time. We will start games early when possible. Top team in bracket, or first team listed on shootout schedules must provide one person to assist with score book. 8 minute quarters. The clock will stop on all FREE THROWS, TIMEOUTS, AND INJURIES. The clock will stop on all whistles the last one minute of each quarter. 2 timeouts per half, use them or lose them. Each one minute in length. No carryover to overtime. Each team receives one timeout in overtime. No timeouts in sudden death overtime. Overtime will be two minutes, starting with jump ball. One timeout per team. Clock stops on all whistles the last one minute. If tied at the end of overtime, a jump ball will be held to start sudden death overtime (no longer than four minutes, clock does not stop), no timeouts in sudden death. If tied after four minutes, best of 5 free throws will determine the winner. The players on the court at the end of the game will each shoot one free throw. The visiting team will shoot their five first. Teams will enter the bonus on the 7th team foul of each half and double bonus on the 10th team foul. Teams may press to a 10 point lead. No full court press allowed in 3rd/4th Boys B, 3rd/4th Girls and 5th Girls brackets. Clock rules in games with no press allowed: In the last :30 seconds of the game, if the score is within 5 points, after a dead ball the clock does not start until the ball is controlled in the front court (since there is no full court press). This is true also after a missed free throw in the last :30 seconds. *If the score is above 5 points, the clock runs normally when the ball is in play, if the score then gets below 5 points the clock will not run until ball is in front court. Halftime will be 3 minutes. This may be adjusted by tournament staff. All games are played on 10 foot regulation hoops. 28.5 inch ball will be used for ALL divisions. All other high school federation rules apply. All decisions by the game officials and tournament staff are final. TIE BREAKERS: In the four team shootouts, the team with the best win-loss record will be the champion. If there is a twoway tie, it will be broken by head-to-head results. If there is a three-way tie, the team allowing the fewest points scored in all games played will be the highest place team. The resulting two-way tie will then be broke by head-to-head results. The above tie-breaker will be used to determine seeds in the 6-team divisions. If you have any questions, please speak with the site supervisor. We Need Your Help! We ask that coaches be aware of these few things you can do to help the Santa Slamfest go smoothly and be a great experience for all involved. 1. The top team in the bracket (or first team listed in shootouts) must provide one person to keep the scoresheet at the scorer s table. Please arrange your helper before beginning warmups so that they have time to get situated and are ready to go at game time. A clock person will be provided. 2. Coaches, when your team takes the court for warmups, please go directly to the scorer s table and put your jersey numbers on the scoresheet. (We don t need names). 3. When the game ends, please instruct your players to pickup all trash, including water bottles/gatorade and place them in the trash. Please move quickly away from the benches so that the teams in the next game can get situated. Everyone s cooperation will help keep games on schedule. Thank you for your help!!
