Commissioner rulings · Aug 2026

House rules

On the floor

  • An air ball you shot may not be the first ball you touch, whether or not it cleared the rim.
  • A self-toss you catch without moving your feet is legal.
  • A kickball needs intent.
  • The wire is always in.

Sundays

  • Roll call opens automatically Wednesday 9:00am ET (you get a push) and closes at tip-off. After tip-off only a commissioner can change it. The cap is 24.
  • If you tapped IN inside the cap, you owe that Sunday's dues. A commissioner marks no-shows. Dues go to Jay on Venmo (the link is on your profile); jersey fees go to Sheel.
  • Fewer than 21 by Thursday noon: one court, capped at 15, with a waitlist. Fewer than 11: the week is cancelled.

Guests and plus-ones

  • A guest can come three times; after that they join as a member.
  • Plus-ones can be added any time, sit on the waitlist Wednesday, and are locked into a spot Thursday noon; the waitlist promotes in order (you get a push when a spot opens).

Day champion

  • Three rounds, best of three, everyone plays everyone. Tie-break is one final game to 15.
