You play 6 minute quarters in JV?

It is not the officials who send the initial invite, it is frequently players. I have two high school-aged sons and have coached many of their friends in basketball, soccer, baseball or volleyball over the years. Since I still play soccer and a little basketball, the players can relate to me better than many of the other parents. Hence, I will get the occasional friend request FROM a player (always been a friend of one of my sons). We just have to be VERY careful in this area.
The Catholic League and some others play 6-minute quarters FR and JV while many other leagues play 7-minute quarters.
