Mercy Rule
** Mercy Rule Changes
————————————————————
Yall, know I love basketball; I’ve been playing since the late 70`s. Today I’m trying to coach my grandson’s game, but I can’t. The phone keeps ringing. Ringing for things that it shouldn’t be. So, moving forward. The Mercy Rule is changed to read as follows.
Rule 26. if a team is ahead by 30 points in grades 2nd-6th boys and girls, micros 20 points ahead in 2nd girls or boys. The clock will continue to run, except on timeouts. Teams ahead by 30 points WILL NO LONGER press in either the full court or half court. Teams ahead by 30 WILL NOT PLAY MAN TO MAN after being up 30. Teams who continue to press in either the full court or half court will be assessed a double technical. The coach will be removed and suspended 6 games. The team will also sit until the coach comes back.
Rule 34. Due to Covid we have had to change many things in our lives. Today we had 6 NO SHOWS IN GYMS. Rule 34 will be in full effect from tonight on. The signups are listed and updated under the announcements up until I build the schedule. If a coach won’t check the signup list, then at least tell the parents that we have a website. I am sick of getting texts from parents wanting to know when they play. 15 texts and messenger from Deshler parents today. The website is open for everyone to watch the schedules. If you got something else going on DONT SIGNUP. Take the day off. Don’t screw up the other team’s day by not showing up
