Open Runs are self-regulated (no referee). Players are expected to come to a consensus on the rules for their session. However, there are some common rules and guidelines to ensure fair play and a positive experience for everyone:

• Fouls: offense call.
• Scoring: 1-2-3 rule. Paint shots are worth 1 point, threes are worth 2.

Players have the ability to adjust the game structure and scoring rules based on preference and skill balance. Some other, common modifications include no-dribble 5-on-5, zone on makes and man to man on misses, or special scoring scenarios like extra points for rebounds or assists.

Most importantly: keep teams balanced, keep it moving, keep it simple, and - most importantly - keep it positive and fun.
