House rules.Argue with them at your own risk.

Ratified by whoever was still there at 9:30 one night in 2019. Amendments require a made free throw, which is why there have only ever been two. They went in at the top, where they belong.

04 · Code of conduct
01

Nobody gets hurt

Everybody here works Tuesday. No charges taken, no undercutting a jumper, no closing out like somebody is scouting. The run only happens again if the same guys can walk in next week.

02

Don't be a dick

Covers the arguing, the scorekeeping nobody asked for, and the guy who calls a foul on every miss. It also covers whatever you were about to do that is not on this list.

03

Call your own fouls

Then live with the shame. The offense calls it, the defense complains about it, the game moves on.

04

Winners stay

Losers shoot for next. Free throws only. Airballs forfeit your spot to whoever laughed loudest.

05

Twos and threes, to 15

Win by two. The last game of the night is the exception: it ends when the gym does, not when somebody gets to 15.

06

Sean's ball, Sean's rules

Sean's hip also gets a vote. When the hip goes, the run goes. Do not test the hip.

07

No heat checks before 9:30

Nobody has earned a 30-footer at 9:10. Nobody has earned one at 10:15 either, but rules are rules.

08

Four on four, nothing over half

Short-handed nights, the ball gets dribbled across half court. No long outlet to the guy who quit on defense and left early.

09

The colored bars are in

Those fat painted stripes down the sidelines play as in bounds. The baseline is still the baseline, so do not get inventive back there.
