2007 JPS BASKETBALL
PARISH LEAGUE RULES RELEASED
 Sixteen
(16) teams will participate. Two (2) teams each from Kingston and
St. James together with the top placed team in each of the other
parishes. The teams will be divided into regions. An official date
for the start is still pending as several teams have not yet
submitted their registration forms.
Rules
1. A draw will be done to seed parishes from 1- 8 in each zone.
2. Teams will play in a double knock out format (home and away) with
the teams scoring the highest cumulative score in each fixture
advancing to the next round.
Seed 1 will play 8, 2 will play 7, 3 will play 6 and 4 plays 5. The
semi-finals will be played on a cross region basis (i.e. 1st Western
will play 2nd Eastern and vice versa).
3. Home teams will be responsible for court preparation and to
secure a Time-keeper and one Referee.
4. Visiting teams will be responsible for the transporting of and
securing a Scorer and one Referee. Where the conference can't
provide a qualified referee, then JABA will endeavour
to provide one.
5. JABA will nominate Referees for the semi-finals and finals.
6. JABA will be responsible for payments to referees.
7. In cases where games are aborted after the third quarter by rain
or poor visibility, the scores of the games at that point will stand
as the final score for those games.
This rule will not be used for the semi final or finals.
8. Games will be played on weekends and start time will be 4 pm
unless otherwise
stated by the JABA.
9. JABA will provide vests for all teams. All teams' members must
wear the same colour and designed shorts. Team members who are not
properly uniformed will not be allowed to play.
10. Home teams must provide team benches, nets, scorer's table and a
score board.
Home teams who fail to provide these equipment will forfeit the
game.
11. Teams that forfeit a game(s) will be banned for one year from
participating in
this competition.
12. Each team will be allowed to register fifteen players (15) only.
Each player must
