Pregame or halftime match

I've done my basketball ' 20/20 version '
Jump balls (no arrow), 4points for dunks,basket tending allowed, no free throws-side ball-pass or shoot = 4points,no time outs, 3 personal or 1 tech or 1 deliberate/unsportsmanlike= player sent off.
Therefore no team foul record needed. About 2 x 8min halfs. All other rules as to player numbers, subs, 3point line, shot clock, 3secs etc. remain the same.
( Maybe U18s to give it a go)

Why jump balls instead of arrow? That makes it slower.

Add a 5pt half-court shot rule.

It would be fun to watch.

Given the short time of the game, you should allow subs at any time when the team doesn't have possession of the ball.

If basket-tending was allowed, no one would ever score!

Maybe a name for it, later on. Instead of Basketball 20/20 version.
Absolutely sweet ball, sweetball , absolute ball.

Only 3 allowed in the key or inside the 3 point line.Fits in with the sub on/off suggestion(see KEV).Run off the court isnt interupted because you're "not involved" in the scoring arch?You need to sub in at the right time as the flow heads down away from your player bench.
Thus shorten the Shotclock to 18-20 seconds.

Wouldn't mind doing that, the second game, Shotclock.

Run the first game as in the topic.

Then work on improvements.

3 on 3.

Could be like the 3BA, which is a new league that has started in AMerica with full court 3 on 3 but with a slightly smaller court. CHeck it out it is pretty hectic!

Playing full court 3 on 3 is pretty much my idea of hell.

Woodville u18 will give this a go. They train at the dome. Allow basket tending in first half , but not in second half, would be better.
