Two technical fouls (section 8.10):
- U10 to U12 player or coach: ejected for the remainder of the sanctioned event.
- U13 to U19 player or coach: ejected from the current game and suspended for the next game.
- Fighting, violence or other serious conduct: immediate removal from the event and referral to the discipline process.
U13 to U14: four 8-minute quarters, equal participation does not apply and substitution follows FIBA rules. When a team leads by 20 points or more, its players must drop back into their backcourt behind the eight-second line once the losing team has player control in its backcourt. Shot clock use is as directed by OBA.
U15 to U19: four 8-minute quarters (10-minute quarters in the OSBA). A 24-second shot clock is mandatory. Equal participation and the drop-back rule do not apply.
Overtime periods are four minutes long at U13 to U19.
