Hoosier Boys Basketball League Rules
 

     The Fieldhouse offers the finest competitive league play available in the state of Indiana for youth of all ages.   Each grade division will offer "A" and "B" divisions to insure appropriate levels of competition for all skill levels. Each league “season” will include 8 regular season games followed by a single elimination playoff.  The seeded playoff will be held as a festive weekend event in order to capture the true fervor and pageantry of Indiana tournament basketball. Only IHSAA officially licensed referees will be employed in order to maintain the integrity of the game Hoosiers love.  Team entry fees are $500 per season.

     All Fieldhouse leagues shall be governed by IHSAA rules with the following exceptions.  School teams must play in the grade division of their oldest player.  At the discretion of The Fieldhouse, "All Star" and AAU teams may be required to play up one grade level above the grade of their oldest player in order to maintain the competitive balance of the league.. All players must be listed on the official team roster with corresponding parent signature to be eligible to participate. Coaches must be prepared to establish all players are eligible to participate in that grade division by producing a current grade report for each player, if requested. Players may not be "double-rostered" on teams within the same grade and division. Teams using illegal players will forfeit all games played to date -- whether or not the illegal player participated in those games.  A second violation of this rule will result in the team being removed from the league without refund. All rosters must be finalized by WEEK TWO of each season. A coach or player ejected from a game shall be suspended for  the following game. A second violation in the same season will result in a suspension for the remainder of that season.

      For Grades 3 - High School, games shall be played in two fourteen-minute halves with a stop clock format.  A running clock shall be used if a team has a lead of twenty points or larger in the second half. No full court pressing or half court trapping zone defenses of any kind may be played by teams with a lead of twenty points or larger. Halftime shall be three minutes in length and overtime periods will be two minutes.  Each team shall provide one volunteer to assist at the scoring table.

         For Grades 1 & 2, full court press is prohibited at all times. Teams are encouraged to play man-to-man defense to teach the players basic fundamental defensive principles. No player has made a travel team when he got older because he "plays a great zone!" Trapping is not allowed. Foul shots shall be approximately 12’ in length. Game times shall be two twelve minute halves, goal height is 9'.       

       Regular season league schedules shall be posted at the beginning of each season.  Special scheduling requests must be submitted prior to the first game.   The Fieldhouse cannot guarantee games not played as originally scheduled will be rescheduled.  Games that can not be rescheduled will count as forfeits against the canceling team. Teams will pay a $50 fine to cover the cost of the officials the first time a game is cancelled . A second cancellation in a season will result in the team's removal from the league without refund.

Unfortunately, games cancelled due to inclement weather cannot not be rescheduled due to court scheduling constraints.
