New forfeit rule for men.
In the past we have always played that if your team has two forfeits in a season your team if out of the tournament.
You get forfeits by:
1) Not showing up at all to play the game. You come with as few as one, recruit players from the previous game, or split up with the team you are scheduled to play, and it is an automatic loss, not a forfeit. If you know for sure your ward can't field a team and if you give us at least a days notice, again it is a loss but not a forfeit.
2) Not fulfilling a referee assignment.
3) Forfeiting for Bad sportsmanship.
The two forfeit rule still apply s for the young men.
However because if you have a bad day, everyone is out of town, the player assigned to ref has a family or car emergency (things happen) and you miss the game and the assignment on the same night.
you are out! This has been deemed a little harsh.
SO from now on for the men you are out after THREE forfeits.
So now you can have a bad day and still recover, Two bad days.... too bad.
Thanks

MAJOR RULE CHANGE,
THE MINNESOTA HIGH SCHOOL LEAGUE changed the rule thus we are changing our rule.
During free throws, the players in the lane can leave their spots anda go for a rebound after the ball is released from the hand, not off the rim. The shooter is still restricted to waiting for the ball to hit the rim. We will begin the change immediately.

Sams basketball rules
All rules are Minnesota high school rules except for a few exceptions:
1) Games are two 20 minute halfs running time, with the clock only stopping for full time outs. In the second half the last three minutes will be stop clock unless a team leads by 15 points or more, than it will be running clock.
2). Two one minute time outs per half per team that do not carry over for the second half or overtime.
Each one minute time out can be cut into two 30 second time outs, during a 30 second time out the clock KEEPS RUNNING, you do not get a drink or discuss strategy, it was instituted to allow for stoppage of play to substitute.
3). Over time. We are going back to regular over time rules after experimenting last year with doing away with a jump ball to start the over time periods.
During the regular season the first overtime period will be two minutes stop clock, with each team getting one full time out, or two 30 second time outs. (In overtime and the last 3 minutes of a close game the clock DOES STOP). The period starts,with a jump ball and the alternating possession resets.
If still tied the second overtime is sudden death, first point wins.
The period starts with another jump ball, the alternating possession resets.
During the tournament, there will. Not be a sudden death period, the 2 minute periods will continue until there is a winner.
4) You can start a game with as few as 3 players, (you can pick up ineligible players and it is an automatic loss but not a forfeit)
5). Two forfeits for a team and you are out of the tournament, you get forfeits by;
A) not showing up
b). Not fulfilling your referee assignments
C). Having the game stopped for bad sportsmanship reasons,
a). Two sportsmanship technicals, or a flagrant technical results in ejection from the game. That player is out for the remainder of the game and THE NEXT GAME,! If this happens to the same player twice in the season he is out for the remainder of the year, including the tournament.
Three sportsmanship technical fouls by a team and the game is over, that team loses and it counts as one of their two forfeits.
6) High school players 10th - college A-f squads are not allowed to play in the league, until their highs school team's season is over, than if that player is a Baptized member of the ward he can join the team, if there are more tha. One from that ward, only one high school player on the court at a time.
7) There. must be a majority of members on the court at a time, 2 non members on the court per team at a time, (should there only be 4 players, 2 May be non-members)
8) A non member living in the same household as a member or if the non member is part of a part member family, they are considered members for sports purposes.
9) Results are final, no "protests". The referees are volunteer, the Re not professionally trained, all we ask is that they do their best, and the referees are always right.
10). We will try to have a stake athletic director at each game to supervise , they can be consulted on the definitions of rules, but the judgement is up to the game referees. the athletic directors do not have power to overturn referee calls but they do have the authority to call sportsmanship technical fouls, or to eject a player for poor sportsmanship.
This has never happened but the authority is granted if needed.
Good luck, spread the word about the sports log

Free agent players interested in playing
Hi all, it has been suggested that a free agent team be created for players who's wards do not have teams.
If your ward has a team you must play for the, no matter what, if it does not you may play for any team that has room for you, once you get established on a team you must continue to play for them the rest of the season, Unless there are unusual cercumstance, than talk to the athletic directors.
For now the YSA singles ward is in need of extra players I suggest free agent players contact them, if they are overwhelmed with players we can split them into two teams.
The contact for the singles ward is

Hi again,
Hope you all had a great Christmas season, We did, just got back from Texas.

At the meeting we will discuss rules, how we will run the games, who will officiate, and set up the first week's schedule.
The men will play all their games Thursday nights, the young men will play most of their games Thursday nights with a few games Saturday mornings, ( The Spanish ward has mutual Thursday nights, and some wards travel long distances making Thursday night games difficult)
So we need to know what teams your ward wants in the leagues and the young men's teams need to let us know if they prefer Thursday nights, Saturday Mornings or if they can do both.
Remember high school players who are Baptized members of your ward will be allowed to join your team after their season is over. However only one high school player from your team on the court at a time.
See you next week.

2014 SAMS LDS men's volleyball champions, Maple Grove
Congrats Maple Grove 2014 SAMS LDS volleyball champions
This is an unusual team, Besides RJ who is 6'3 or so, and is a novice volleyball player, the length of the players go 6'1", 6'0", 5'9", 5'9", 5'6" 4'10"! Some have played together for 40 years. (or so). But very unselfish, great court coverage, and a line up that takes advantage of the player's strengths and hides the weaknesses.
