I like it betetr when there is no time limit--it's simply the first team to 5. Your way is probably fairer, but very hard to explain. What coach (present company excepted) is going to understand it?

You could be right about it being confusing, but we may just try it for one season and see how it goes. Speaking of overtimes (ugh!), I had one today at The Hoop in Beaverton in a boys varsity game. Of course, it was my partner's fault. He called a shooting foul with three seconds to go so A1 goes to the line down two points. He hits both. Team B can't get off a shot and we go to a two minute OT.

Team B scores with 14 seconds to go to go up by two. A2 comes down, holds the ball, then with two seconds to go, puts up a 3. It swishes through at the horn.

Long game, but fun.

Earlier, I had a girls JV game and the halftime score was 46-2. Boy, that was fun, too.
