The Hoco league plays NCAA rules with a few modifications for youngest grades. Anyone know whether they plan to implement shot clock? Seems far fetched for youth refs to manage. And I don't think it's needed in youth game
HoCo has paid score keepers/clock operators and working scoreboards. Minus having a clock on both ends of the field, it doesn't seem to be that much of a hurdle to overcome. The ref simply signals a reset of the shot clock on change of possessions or an offensive reset and the kid working the clock hits the button.
Players/coaches need to be able to see the shot clock counting down.
Shot clock would be a mistake in youth. Would add a complexity to the game that is unwarranted.
