NEW RULE CHANGE!

Alright, so the BJIM Scouts decided to incorporate this rule to help make games more interesting, so here it is:

If a game has 30 seconds or less, with a 5 point lead/deficit or less (2 possessions), then a shooting foul that is made ("and 1") has 1 live free throw. A non-shooting foul will consist of 1 automatic point and also 1 live free throw. A shooting foul that is missed will stay the same at 2 automatic points. Also, the clock will stop for the free throws, and it will also stop when the ball goes out of bounds. Remember, all of this will only happen with 30 seconds or less, and a 5 point lead/deficit or less (2 possessions). We're hoping this rule will make the games more interesting, especially in playoff time.

2016-2017 Season

A new season is upon us! Gather your teams and get ready for an exciting Intramural Basketball Season! With defending champs, The Born Stars, looking to go for a 2-peat, they'll be the team to beat, but with news that former Brebeuf basketball player, Luke Iffert, not playing this year, the Practice Squad will be a tough competitor. Also, junior teams like Skillz that Killz and the Flock will look to make a run on the competition, and hopefully bring a championship to their squads. The season is almost ready to start. Good luck to everyone and remember, BALL IS LIFE!
