Obviously, it would be hard to play the game without a ball or rims. But we would still play if there was incorrect padding on the backboards, or if there was not a shadow line through the logo painted at center court. Where do nets fall in this question?

In our area we had a problem with numerous schools not having the proper padding last year. Our assignor said
no padding = no game. Amazingly, the problem cleaned up pretty quick. I heard of 2 games that weren't played.
