CKBA 5v5 Adult Basketball League Rules

LEAGUE INFORMATION

 1. The following rules shall govern all teams and leagues of the adult 5x5 basketball program under the jurisdiction of the Court Kings Basketball Academy Recreation Department. All other rules will be administered in accordance with the SCMAF rule book and/or the CIF High School Basketball Rules.

 2. The City of Lompoc Recreation Center & CKBA will not assume responsibility for personal injury or property damages to persons participating in this adult sport activity. The participant recognizes there is a risk of injury by participating in this program. 

3. The CKBA Staff shall serve as League Director and has final authority to make decisions pertaining to all league rules and regulations.

 4. The team manager(s) has full responsibility for assuming all financial obligations to the CKBA regardless of cause.

 5. Neither players nor visitors may enter the gym(s) until directed to do so by a CKBA representative.

 

LEAGUE GENERAL PLAYING RULES

 1. All games are played on full court. Teams supply their own balls.

2. Each game will consist of two (2) halves or (4) quarters. Each half will be twenty (20) minutes of running time or (10) minutes per quarter. The last one (1) minute of the second (2nd) half will be played under a non-running clock if the point spread is ten (10) points or less at the eighteen (18) minute mark. The same rule will apply for overtime. The clock does not stop on a technical foul unless it occurs within the last one minute of the second half.

 3. All games will begin with a jump ball at mid-court. To begin the second half, the team who did not control the jump ball in the first half will now receive possession. 

4. The standard sidelines, end lines, and half-court lines will be out-of-bounds.

5. The 3-point & 5-point line will be in effect.

6. The games start promptly at the scheduled time. A team must have at least four players present to begin play. A game shall be deemed a forfeit, which will be recorded in the standings as a loss, if a team has less than four (4) players at game time. A game may still legally begin 3-5 minutes after the scheduled time if players arrive late, however, the game clock will reflect this and start, i.e., at the 17:00 or 15:00 minute mark. After this period (leeway) the game will indeed be deemed a forfeit. Simply, if a team does not acquire its fourth player until 5:01 (five minutes and one second) after the game is scheduled to start a forfeit will be issued. Each game will include a five- (5) minute warm-up, and a three- (3) minute halftime.

7. All players MUST have matching jerseys with numbers on the front and/or back. A technical foul will be immediately imposed for every player entering the court in violation of this rule. Legal numerals must be between 0-55, in a plain Arabic font, 6” high, ¾” wide on the back. Front numbers may be 4” high. Numbers 6, 7, 8, 9 are illegal. NOTE: Home Teams will have the first choice of jersey color. 

 

DEFENSIVE 5-SECONDS VIOLATION

In a defensive 5-second violation, a player cannot stay for five consecutive seconds inside the paint if not guarding an offensive player. The count starts when a player's foot first enters the area, and it ends when both feet are out of it. A player's feet must completely leave the paint before they can re-enter.

PLAYER ELIGIBILITY/TEAM ROSTERS/LATE ROSTER ADDS

 1. A roster of players is to include names, addresses, zip codes, phone numbers, and signatures of ALL players. Roster limits maximum of twelve (12) and minimum of seven (7) players. The completed team roster is due prior to the start of the first game. NO EXCEPTIONS.

2. A player must be eighteen (18) years of age or older and out of high school to participate. A sixteen-seventeen (16-17) year old may be listed on a team roster but is not eligible to participate until his/her eighteenth (18th) birthday; or will need the parent/guardian of a minor to sign waiver release in order to participate in the basketball league. 

3. Each Team Manager ASSUMES THE RESPONSIBILITY of assuring that each of his players is legally rostered. A player found to be “illegal” for whatever reason is subjecting his team to a forfeit, his Team Manager to a suspension and himself to a suspension. 

4. A player whose name appears on one or more rosters will have to “legally” participate on the team he plays for first in LEAGUE play. 

5. Players may be added without the permission of the other team managers throughout the “Late Add” process during the first two (2) weeks of play only. 

6. A Team Manager may petition the league to add players to his league roster following the first two (2) weeks if exceptional justification is given to the League Director to support this action. *Teams wishing to add players through this “Late Add” process need the written approval of the managers of the other teams within the division before the player(s) may participate.  

 

SCORING/FOULS/INJURY/PLAYOFFS/OVERTIME 

1. Individual fouls will be tabulated. Players can foul out. Players will be allowed five (6) fouls per game. Upon committing the fifth (5th) foul, the player will be removed from the game. Intentional/flagrant fouls will be strictly enforced and may be cause for ejection, suspension, and/or permanent disqualification. A flagrant foul constitutes an automatic two shots and possession of the ball. Two (2) flagrant fouls constitutes automatic ejection from the game warranting a forfeit if the team with ejectee cannot continue play due to lack of legally rostered players.

2. A bonus one-on-one situation will occur on and after the seventh (7th) team foul. The NCAA rule of two (2) foul shots on and after the tenth (10th) foul will be enforced. 

3. Do not verbally attack the referees whether they are right or wrong. The league is offered to allow each player an opportunity to have fun and get a workout while playing the game of basketball. Any fighting, deliberate mouthing off, berating or cursing will result in a technical foul and an immediate three- (3) minute game suspension. Two (2) technical fouls in one (1) game will result in an immediate ejection. Three (3) technical fouls in a season will result in a one (1) game suspension; a fourth (4th) technical foul will result in the player being suspended for the remainder of the season. All protests or appeals must be made in WRITING to the CKBA League Recreation Department. All protests/appeals will be reviewed and a determination will be made prior to the following game(s). 

4. The clock will not stop for any injury, unless severe. There will be a two (2) minute break between games. The clock does not stop on a technical unless it occurs within the last two minutes of the second half. 

5. In case of a tie game, a three (3) minute overtime will determine the winner. A maximum of two (1) overtime periods will be played. At the end of the second (1st) overtime period, if the game is still tied, the game will go into sudden death (first team to score wins game). One timeout per overtime period is assessed. Timeouts from regulation cannot be carried into the overtime period. 

6. Each team will be allowed three (4) time-outs per regulation game and one (1) time-out for each overtime period. (1) 30-seconds time-outs & (3) 60-seconds time-outs per game. The clock will be stopped during time-outs.

7. Playoff positioning will be determined and the top 4-6 teams will make playoffs. Tiebreaker 1: Head to Head Competition. Tiebreaker 2: Head to Head Point Spread/Total. Tiebreaker 3: Head to Head Competition vs. Playoff Teams. Tiebreaker 4: Head to Head Point Spread/Total with Playoff Teams.

8. If no official is present at game time, team managers may jointly agree to play the game, if so, the final score of that game will stand. Officials cannot officiate a forfeit game. 

 

CLEAR PATH FOUL

Clear Path to the Basket: If a fast break starts in a team's backcourt and a defender fouls any offensive player when the team is going to score an easy basket, a clear path foul has occurred. When the foul happens, no defender can be ahead of the ball where he could defend against the easy basket. (A clear path foul is defined as a personal foul against any offensive player during his team's transition scoring opportunity in the following circumstances: The ball is ahead of the tip of the circle in the backcourt. No defender is ahead of the offensive player with the transition scoring opportunity).

PENALTY- The penalties for a clear-path foul rule are significant: two free throws for the team that is fouled, plus sideline possession near the spot of the foul. (If you commit a clear path foul, the other team gets two free throws (a.k.a. foul shots) AND possession).

 

POSITIONING IN LEAGUE 

1. Upon registration, each team may request placement in a specific division; however, CKBA Recreation reserves the right to assign teams when necessary. If it is apparent that a team is misplaced within a division, adjustments may be made after the 3rd week of play and continue through the season. (Discretion regarding adjustments will be left up to the league director.) Teams moved up to a higher league because of this rule would be assured of a playoff position. 

 

LEAGUE & PLAYER AWARDS

Individual awards will be given out to the awarded players; and  to the first (1st) place teams of each division.

 

 CONDUCT/SPECIAL CIRCUMSTANCES 

1. UNSPORTSMANLIKE CONDUCT WILL NOT BE TOLERATED. Players ejected from a game will receive, at minimum, an additional one (1) game suspension. The CKBA league administration will review each case to determine if a more severe penalty is warranted. A suspension may range from one (1) game to permanent disqualification. If a suspension causes a team to have less than four (4) players, the game shall count as a forfeit. Players fighting will be ejected from the game and suspended for the remainder of the season. A player can be ejected from a game or any portion of the season at the discretion of the referee.

 2. Consuming alcohol prior to, or during games, is not permitted. A team or player may be subjecting themselves to a forfeit and/or a suspension if caught violating this SCMAF, LUSD, Lompoc Recreation Center, VMS/LVMS/LHS/CHS School, and CKBA rule.

Maximum penalty: suspension for the remainder of the season. Please note: a) suspensions have no boundaries. I.e.

Teams repeatedly abusing the sportsmanship rules as deemed by the official(s) and/or League Director may be unable to participate in any playoffs, nor may they receive any awards due for winning a given league. They may also lose priority for registering in further leagues. A team manager is the ultimate official representative for a team and is therefore responsible for informing all players of conduct rules.

NO PLAYING is allowed in the foyer. NO CLIMBING of bleachers. NO HORSEPLAY allowed inside/outside the gym on school property. Infractions of these rules by any individual related to a team directly/indirectly will result in possible forfeit(s).

15. Please use common courtesy when practicing while other teams are playing. Bouncing balls can distract players. If necessary, officials can require non-players to stop bouncing balls or from doing anything distracting. Side baskets will be kept up during play. 

16. League rules will be evaluated after two (2) weeks of play. If necessary, rules may be adjusted at that time. Players with suggested rule changes should call the CKBA Recreation Department at ckbabasketball@gmail.com or 1-888-247-6486.

To Whom This May Concern:

The Court Kings Basketball Academy is a non-profit organization that utilizes basketball to reach out to student athletes within our community. We currently have approximately 45 student athletes at our academy that are passionate about basketball. The academy believes in providing a safe and sanctioned place for our students to exercise, socialize and develop skills that will be useful throughout their lives. Our organization is dedicated to the process of making that happen but we need your help.

The Court Kings Basketball Academy can only achieve its goals with the assistance of generous donations from members of our community. Without these donations, serving those in our area would not be possible. Economic times are tough and family budget constraints make it even more of a challenge to provide funding for tutoring, gym rental use, basketball league play and uniforms. As a non-profit organization we rely on support from our community. The funding from your donation will bring us closer to achieving our goals. Our current fundraising goal is to find either individual or team sponsorship for uniforms at a cost of $200 per athlete that includes a reversible jersey and basketball shorts. We appreciate any type of contribution to our program either monetary, or goods and services. Our non-profit number # 81-4901690. Every uniform sponsorship company/family name will be on the back of uniform for life as sincere in honor of generosity by helping accomplish our goal!

I would like to thank you for considering our request for a donation for sponsorship. If you have any inquiries regarding our organization, fund management, or the project itself, please feel free to contact me at the address given above or at our email address.
