Scoring

How the result works

Made finishes score 1 for the attacking pair; defensive stops score 1 for the defender line.

Example: The ball handler draws the defender, passes to the runner, and the layup scores 1 for attackers.

Host tip

Keep it clean

Letting possessions reset after a bad pass. A turnover ends the wave.

Safety: Keep the lane clear and call charges or reckless contact immediately.
