Scoring

How the result works

Crossbar hit scores 2 points. Rebound finish scores 1 point by the agreed rule.

Example: A shot clips the bar and bounces out. The shooter finishes the rebound and scores 3 total.

Host tip

Keep it clean

Crowding the rebound path. Name who is allowed to chase before each attempt.
