2024 HOOPFEST TOURNAMENT RULES
1. Each team can have up to four (4) players on their roster. Rosters CANNOT change once a team has started
play in the tournament. Any team using an ineligible player will be disqualified from the tournament with no
refund.
2. For 6th, 7th, 8th, JV and Varsity divisions, the upcoming 2024-2025 school year determines what division
students should play. Example, if a player is entering the 6th grade in the 2024-2025 school year, they would
play in the 6th grade division.
3. All games will be officiated. The referees' decisions are final. Each player is expected to treat the officials
with respect. The referees are allowed to call technical fouls at their own discretion. A player who receives a
technical foul is disqualified for the remainder of the current game. If any player receives two technical fouls
in the same game, the player will be disqualified for the remainder of the tournament. If two players are
disqualified for the same game, the team must finish the game with two players. Technical fouls result in the
opposing team shooting 1 free throw worth 2 points and keeping possession of the ball.
4. Each game will be played to thirty (30) points or twenty five minutes. Whichever comes faster will
determine the format. If after 25 minutes the game is tied, teams will shoot free throws one player at a time
to determine a winner. If the first player from team A shoots and makes their free throw and the first player
to shoot from team B misses their free throw, team A will be determined the winner. If both first players
make their free throws, a new second shooter will be used and so forth until a winner is determined..
5. A jump ball is not used to start the game. Instead, a coin toss is held immediately before the game. The
winning team will take possession of the ball to start the game.
6. Each possession following a dead ball will start with the defensive team checking the ball to the offensive
team at the top of the key. The offensive player can only pass the ball in. They cannot dribble or shoot the ball.
The defensive player has to have both feet inside the three point circle until the ball is passed. The defensive
player cannot get up and pressure the passer. Once the ball is passed in, regular rules are in play.
7. Each team is allowed six team fouls per game. Of the first six fouls, only shooting fouls will be rewarded
with free throws (1 free throw worth two points). Beginning with the seventh team foul, the team who is fouled
will have an option of one free throw worth two points or taking the ball out. The only three point plays are
three point shots. Even on shooting fouls, the player who was fouled always has the choice of whether to shoot
the free throw or take the ball out. During free throw attempts ALL players on the court must be standing
between the three point circle and the half court line.
8. There are no jump balls at any time in the game; neither is there an alternating possession rule. In any held
ball situation, the defensive team is granted possession.
9. If the defense gains possession of the ball within the arc, by a steal, a block or a rebound, the team must
move the ball behind the arc before being allowed to take a shot.
10. Substitutions can be made at any dead ball situation.
11. Each team is allowed one 30 second timeout.
12. The tournament will be a double elimination style tournament. Medals will be awarded to the winner of each
division.
