Each team consists of 4 players, 3 playing and 1 in subs tu on
A coin flip determines which team gets possession of the ball
Every shot made inside the arc is worth 1 point, while every shot outside the arc is worth 2
points
Fouls lead to free throws and every free throw made is worth 1 point.
Once a point has been made the opposing team clears the ball by taking it outside the arc.
The ball must be cleared every me there is a change in possession.
