Season Length
There are 10 games in the season for 7th Grade Boys Basketball, and each one will be played against another school in the Northshore School District.
Just like with practice, members of the basketball team are expected to attend games unless prior communication takes place.
Game Regulations
- Each game consists of four eight minute periods, or quarters. There is a five minute half time break between the 2nd and 3rd periods.
- A volunteer referee will manage all games. Please treat this person with respect and understand that they are doing a great service to the teams.
Transportation
For matches played at Timbercrest students should remain at school for warmups and last minute strategy changes.
Buses will be provided to transport students to games played at other schools. Please be ready to board the buses by 3:15 pm!
At the conclusion of both home and away games students will need to arrange for transportation home.
Practice Good Sportsmanship
Though it is a competition, it is important to practice good sportsmanship at all games.
- Refrain from "trash talk".
- Express appreciation toward your competitors whether you are the host or visitor.
- Don't be a sore loser or a sore winner.
- Winning means nothing if you lose off of the court by being disrespectful or disruptive.
