Mercy Rule

Junior basketball is about participation and enjoyment for all players. To help keep situations of team dominance at a minimum, the mercy rule (defensive restriction) shall apply to all domestic junior competitions.
  1. The defence is required to drop back to within the 3-point line whenever the opposition gain possession, from an inbound or field play, if they have a lead of 15 or more points.
  2. In games where zone is permitted, the leading team shall use a man to man defence inside the three point line, not a zone.  
  3. Scoretable officials shall notify the coach and referees when the mercy rule needs to be applied.
  4. Referees may give one warning to a team for a mercy rule violation.  Following such warning, any repeat offending from that team during a game shall result in the referees calling a violation and the ball awarded to the opponents for a throw-in. 
  5. If the margin between the two teams returns to within 15 points, the mercy rule shall no longer apply.
  6. The mercy rule is not applicable during any semi, preliminary or grand final games.
