Quarter length for 9th grade
We are trying to work on a contract with our conference, some school want to play 7 minutes, others 6 minutes. Is there a recommended length by either IAABO or NFHS? I went to NFHS and could not find it.

5-5 ...
ART. 1 Playing time for teams of high school age shall be four quarters of
eight minutes each with intermissions of one minute after the first and third quarters, and 10 minutes between halves. The halftime intermission may be extended to a maximum of 15 minutes for special activities, provided home management has properly notified the visiting team prior to the start of the game. ART. 2 Games involving only students below the ninth grade shall be played in six-minute quarters with intermissions as in Article 1. An organization sponsoring games involving teams which combine ninth-grade students with students in the eighth and/or seventh grades, may play those games in quarters of eight minutes. ART. 3 A quarter(s) may be shortened in an emergency or at any time by mutual agreement of the opposing coaches and referee. Playing time and number of quarters for nonvarsity game quarters may be reduced by mutual agreement of opposing coaches.

Minnesota does 2 halves rather than 4 quarters...
18 minute halves for Varsity 16 minute halves for JV 14 minute halves for 9th and 10th grade games. I think they usually run 14-minute halves for Jr High, but it might be 12 instead. |

All high school games here have 8-minute quarters. Some middle schools do eight minutes, some seven. I have never seen a six-minute quarter here in scholastic basketball.

Same here....all HS (Fr, So/JV2, JV, and V) are 8 minute quarters.

In this area, almost all of the districts I've called have played 8 min quarters for all high school levels. Jr High varies but usually 7th grade plays 6 min and 8th plays 7-8 min.

Our rural schools play 6 min qtrs. for JV...and it is greatly appreciated on our part! The city schools play 8 mins for JV and it seems brutal at times...
We get $35 for 6 minute JV and $40 for 8 minute JV. |
