Really? Haven't done AAU in a couple of years, but I've only seen them use NFHS rules.

Oh I agree, and I ate VERY well the next couple of days. However, if you had been where I had been for the previous couple of months, as an American, I felt it was my DUTY to go for a cheeseburger first.!

Well, the first thing I ate, last time I went to the US, was a cheeseburger. And pretty good, I'd say. When in Rome…

All AAU girls games are supposed to be played under NCAA-W rules. Many do not because they do not have shot clocks available. But if you go to any type of national qualifier or national chanmpionship: NCAA-W rules.

And since only eight states have shot clocks for their HS games, it is likely that this rule isn't enforced more often than it is used.
The options available to the AAU tournament are: play without the shot clock, get shot clocks from a nearby facility, playing at a local college gym which has them, or bring in a bunch of them.
