League Rules

Please click the link below for the Brooklyn Park league rules. The City of Brooklyn Park basketball league is governed by the National Federation of State High School Associations rules.  The following document is a list of rules that are either different from, or more defined than, the NFHS Rule Book.  It also highlights important rules that managers and players should know.  All NFHS rules apply, given that a written league-rule doesn’t trump them.  Officials will rule on any instance that these rules or the NFHS rule book do not cover.  Our hope is that you enjoy your experience participating in our leagues.
