Ours are the same length.
Varsity games start at 7:20 with 5 fouls called.
2nd quarter start at 7:35 and we call 7 fouls.
3rd quarter starts at 8:05 and we call 4 fouls.
4th quarter (8:20 start) ends at 8:40. Number of fouls we call depends on the time frame. We allow 2 minutes per.
Overtimes are not allowed (bad game management).
Shower and in car at 8:55.
We are in the restaurant replaying the game at 9:10.
If a coach gets a T, we subtract two of his allotted fouls, which leads to another T, which in turn subtracts two more fouls, but accelerates the game, because we do not talk to the assistant Coach, at all.
When the difference in score in the 2nd half is 40+ the clock stops only on Times-out and ends of periods. The running clock allows us to make many more fouls on the team that is leading, but that evens out quite well by passing on non-bloody calls against the trailing team.
same ol'... same ol'.

Thanks for that!
