The girls use NCAA rules, especially team control fouls. Bone up on your shot clock skills. Will be needed it you have a "green" table crew. Remind the S/C operator to hold it on long rebounds. Nothing worse than a team getting possession after a long rebound an having only 26 to shoot.
Do they just use the shot clock at the girls games? I've never seen a shot clock at an AAU game but then I've never worked "the Nationals". Anyway, given the skill level of some of the table crews I can see how a shot clock could be painful to manage. (Ahem...given the skll level of some of the referees too...mumble mumble cough cough)

Anyway, my experience with AAU is if it takes longer than 10 seconds for a team to get up the floor & take their shot then somethng is seriously wrong. Run & gun baaaaby! Run & gun!
