TOURNAMENT RULES
• Games will be regulation 8 minute quarter games.
• Each team will play one game on Friday and two games on Saturday with no back to back games.
• A running clock will be implemented if any team goes up by 35 points. If the trailing team cuts the deficit below 25 points, the clock will resume normal operation.
• Each team is responsible for providing their own scorebook keeper at the scorer’s table. The first team listed will be the home team on the scoreboard and will keep the official book.
•First and second placings will be determined first by wins and losses and, in the case of a tie, by head-to-head match-ups.
*Home teams will wear the lighter colored jerseys. If uniform colors are an issue, the two coaches should work out a solution.
*The gym will be accessible one hour prior to the first game of each day.
•In games not involving Hardin County Charger teams, the visiting team will be responsible to have someone run the clock.

TEAM ROOMS
The gyms’ locker rooms are not yet completed, so teams will use classrooms. Please be sure whenever players are in the rooms that an adult is always with them. Please stress to your players that the computers and other classroom items are to be left alone. Classrooms will be marked according to who is to use each room. After a team’s games, all gym bags and belongings should be removed from the room, to assure that nothing gets lost or stolen.
AWARDS
There will be trophies for first and second place for both girls and boys. Following each game, the coaches will be asked to vote for one player from each team. There will be a five player all-tournament team selected. The boy and girl player with the most votes at the end of the tournament will be the MVP. Awards will be given following the last boys’ game and the last girls’ game.
Placings will be determined first by win-loss record and, if needed, by head to head match ups.
