Proposal 129: New section 15D.1 Court and Equipment [ Revision 2 ]

Committee: 15. Basketball
Submitted on 2025-07-20
Status: Passed on August 07, 2025

Background

It regularly happens for practical reasons that the FIBA rules about the court or the ball size are not fully respected. The IUF Rulebook should acknowledge such deviations.

Proposal

Addition of:

15D Event Organizer Rules

15D.1 Court and Equipment

Unicycle Basketball is played with a FIBA size 7 ball. The basketball ring shall be 3.05 meters (10 feet) off the ground. Due to organizational constraints, the directors may choose to modify the court size from the FIBA requirements but the court must have clearly delineated out of bounds, half court, 3pt, and restricted zone lines.

Body

We set the ball and the ring height to what the FIBA rules require for adult men 5x5.

The new rule acknowledges that the organizers and directors may choose courts which are deviating from the FIBA rules but the new rule nevertheless provides minimal requirements.
