Miniball Rules/Notes
 Games will consist of two 13 minute halves, and will start on each half hour
 Hoops are lowered to a height of approximately 2.5m
 A size 5 basketball will be used
 The free throw line is closer to the hoop than in a standard game
 Four Dribble Rule Players are allowed a maximum of four bounces of the ball when dribbling at any one time, before having to pass it to a team mate
 Wristband Rule Players must guard players with the same coloured wristband as them.
 Retreat Rule Players must retreat to touch halfway when: They lose clear possession in the attacking half; or their team scores a basket (this promotes transition from offence to defense and creates space for dribbling and passing to develop)
 Fouls Each player has a maximum of four fouls for the game. (This promotes the concept of non-physical play and ultimately leads to better defence)
 Each team is to wear a consistent uniform, preferably numbered (though we can supply numbered bibs if needed)
 No timeouts permitted
 Mouthguards are required by all players (as per BBNZ/ACC policy)
