Scoring

Each week teams will accumulate points for games won. Teams will be awarded 3 points for the most wins, 2 points for the second most wins, and 1 for the least. The team with the most points at the end of the season will win the Recess league!

Forfeits

Your team will forfeit if you do not have the minimum number of players 5 minutes into your start time.

If you start late due to the previous game ending late we will give you time to finish a game.

Planning Ahead

All teams should show up ready to jump in and play each week. Please use the time in between games to review the tips posted in the Facebok group and ask us questions about league format. You will have time in-between games to change lineups, strategy and get ready. Use the time wisely because time on the court is limited!

Downtime

You may have 20-40 minutes of Downtime in between games. During this time you may hang out at BU, upstairs in the cafe or outside of the venue. Feel free to bring playing cards, games, etc. to help pass the time!
