I check with both head coaches to make sure everyone is on the same page. The kid running the scoreboard asks me if we even need to put time on the clock. I tell him that I don't see the point.

A summer league I was previously involved with used a variation where during the regular games, a tie wa sbroken by the first team scoring three points.
I recall one game where I believe the team winning the tap worked the shot clock down and drained a triple to win it. I also remember another game where Team A scored a
basket to go up two, and then committed 4 straight fouls (modified Pro rules; 4 team fouls in OT = Penalty) to put the opposing team into the penalty so they could keep Team B from shooting a three pointer and give them a chance to win it on the next possession.
