My association covers girls games in the northern VA region for the Independent School League (private schools). They use a 30-second shot clock. I'm not sure if they boys do or not.

Had a JVG/VG doubleheader Tuesday night. The visiting school was from a league that does not use the shot clock and it really showed. In the VG game, the visitors were down 18-1 at the end of the first quarter. They were primarily a passing team and had numerous shot clock violations (time expired). The visiting coach asked me what the deal was with the violations (at that time I did not know their league didn't use shot clock) and I had to quickly explain to him what caused it. To their credit, they made a heck of an adjustment and only lost 38-34.
