Special Rules
All Players MUST play or live in the same school district

*3rd and 4th Grade- No defending in the back court (pressing) with exception of the last 2 minutes of the 2nd and 4th quarters and entire overtime periods. No defending in the backcourt once up 10 points or more.

*3rd and 4th Grade - Players shooting free throws must start behind the foul line, but may breached the foul line if the momentum of the players natural shot carries him across. The shooting player must not break to collect rebound until the ball touches the rim.

*3rd and 4th Grade - Due to the fact that the Valley Elementary Gym floor dose not have a three point arc, all made baskets from the floor will count as two point baskets. This will transfer to the awarding of foul shots. Games played in the later rounds of the 3rd and 4th grade tournament may be played on the Valley Intermediate Gym floor that does have a three point arc and shots made from the floor behind the arc will count as three point shots.

*(Water Only Please) No soft drinks or sports drinks are permitted in Valley Elementary Gym.

Get your 3rd grade team in, and I know Minford will get their 3rd grade team in. This will mean a seperate tournament for 3rd and 4th grades. I know it is so hard to get third grade only tournaments. Hope KOOLKOACH and Jesco get their teams in.

[Jesco White]

Just got off the phone with Tim, and Minford's 3rd Grade Team is officially in the tourney. Now, if KOOLKOACH can get his 3rd grade team in, we can have a split tourney. Either way, it should be a lot of fun.

[KOOLKOACH]

I spoke to the pres. tonite.... looks like you can pencil us in the 4th grade boys tnmt. Craig will be calling you soon.... thanks alot....
