I did some AAU women this weekend also, although by women I mean mostly freshman and sophomore high school, and why they have them using a 30 second clock and playing by NCAAW is beyond me, because the earliest many will see that is 3 years from now.

Huh? 30 second shot clock is used in HS, with no 10-second rule. Not sure what you mean.

The AAU girls tournaments for high school age players and even younger use a shot clock and NCAA W rules. That is just what the AAU organization decided to do.

Also, some states use a shot clock for NFHS games. I know that in CA both boys and girls have a shot clock and the girls do not have a 10 second count in the backcourt.

I had the same issue in a Girls 17 Year Old AAU Tourney. I called a back court violation and everyone blew up. I also explained to them that there is a back court violation, but no back court count. They insisted on the no back court, but I stuck to my guns. We have a NCAAW official on our board that got everyone straight before the campionship game.
