Vergennes Jamboree Basketball Rules and
Information
* Games consist of two 12 minute running
halves
* 5 minute halftime
* 10 minutes between games to clean &
switch courts
* Please clean up your bench area as
soon as your game is over as there is only 10 minutes
to switch courts and other teams need to
move into your bench for the next game. Please
utilize hallways to give after game
talks to your team so we can keep games running on
schedule.
* Each team plays 3 games
* Fouls will be called but no foul shots
will be taken as the clock is running and we need
to keep games on schedule. Possession
will be granted to the opposing team and fouls are
not recorded. Please be aware however
that if a player continues to play rough and
commit fouls to an excess we will ask
the coach to sit that player. Please do not take
advantage of the game just because fouls
are not being recorded.
* Games will be refereed by high school
basketball players not real refs. They are doing a
community service and volunteering their
time to help out. They will do the best they can,
please be advised that not everything
may be called. The focus of the Jamboree is to
provide a day of basketball with lots of
playing time to focus on skills. Winning and losing
is not stressed. Score will be kept and
it is expected of all teams and fans that good
sportsmanlike behavior is demonstrated.
Arguing with the refs about calls or disrespect
to the other team will result in teams
or fans being asked to leave or not invited back the
following year.
* We appreciate everyones interest in
this Jamboree and hope to continue to provide a
fun day of basketball for our area youth
please help to enforce these rules and
sportsmanlike behaviors with your teams
and fans. Coaches need to lead by example and
our players will have an enjoyable experience.
