Although the Contest Hoop contains smart tracking, shot charts, rim charts, shot angle trajectory, shot analytics, performance data, and a backboard LED perimeter light, the Huupe Officials will be the official Round timer(s) and score keeper(s) whose decisions are final and binding in all respects on behalf of the Sponsor. Any malfunction of the Contest Hoop smart features including but not limited to: green light/red light basket counter, timer, ranking, positioning will not have any effect on the official scoring/timing process that is conducted and solely handled by Huupe Officials, nor can the Contest Hoop features be used to dispute Huupe Officials’ determinations. In addition, malfunctions or circumstances such as the following will be handled solely by Huupe Officials who will determine whether the affected Round may be re-started (in their sole and absolute discretion): broken rim, bent rim, torn net, defective ball, lighting failure, and/or power outage. All Rounds will be video recorded by Huupe Officials. Sponsor and Huupe Officials may use video replay, frame-by-frame analysis, or any available recording technology to verify or overturn preliminary scoring determinations.

a) The Contest Hoop is ten (10) feet from the playing surface to the top of the rim.

b) The Contest Hoop rim has an inside diameter of eighteen (18) inches which is a circumference of approximately fifty-six point five (56.5) inches.

9. Round Requirements:

Each Eligible Participant will receive exactly five (5) Contest Balls at each of the five (5) Zones for a maximum of twenty-five (25) shot attempts within sixty seconds (:60) as deemed by the Huupe Officials’ timekeeper(s). Eligible Participants must shoot each Contest Ball one at a time, and Eligible Participants will be allowed only one (1) attempt per Contest Ball. If an Eligible Participant’s foot touches the painted three-point line when they elevate to shoot, any resulting basket for such shot is not considered a Shot Made. Once the Contest Ball is successfully released in the air, where the Eligible Participant lands or steps afterward does not affect the three-point designation and can be considered a Shot Made if the Contest Ball completely passes through the hoop (subject to verification). Eligible Participants will be allowed only one (1) attempt per basketball for a maximum of five (5) shots per Zone. Eligible Participants are expected to warm up on their own time outside of the facility where the Contest is held. No practice throws will be accommodated.

a) Huupe Official’s whistle or buzzer will be deemed as the official start of the Huupe Official’s timers for the maximum sixty second (:60) time per Round. An Eligible Participant’s first release of the Contest Ball is not considered the ‘start’ of the Round unless the whistle or buzzer has sounded.

b) Each Eligible Participant will start their Round on the basketball court at a specific corner designated by Huupe Officials, shoot a maximum of five (5) Contest Balls at each of the five (5) Zones moving sequentially along the arc (corner, wing, and top of the arc,), and finish at the opposite corner.

c) The sixty-second (:60) time requirement includes the time it takes for Eligible Participants to move sequentially from one Zone to another in addition to completing twenty-five (25) shots in total. Once five (5) shots are completed in each Zone (whether successful or not), the Eligible Participant should immediately and quickly move to the next Zone in the order stated above.

d) If a Contest Ball is deemed to be in a Eligible Participant’s hands (or touching any part of the hand or body) as the whistle or buzzer sounds, the shot would not count.

e) Eligible Participants must be standing In Bounds (behind the three-point line demarcation on the marker) for each throw in each Zone. Failure to stand In Bounds, will not result in a point regardless whether the Contest Ball went through the Contest Hoop.

f) Eligible Participants must not move away from any Zone to assist a Contest Ball into the basket, or interfere with the hoop or basket rim for any reason.

g) Whether or not a shot is missed or not deemed a Shot Made for any reason, Eligible Participants are still encouraged to fully complete their entire Round in the event that their final score (defined in Section 11) may qualify for a prize other than the Grand Prize.

h) Eligible Participants should not stop in the middle of their Round for any reason (unless Huupe Officials make a determination that requires a stoppage). Failure to complete a Round in its entirety will result in disqualification and the Eligible Participant forfeits any potential prize opportunity.

In the event that an Eligible Participant’s Round is interrupted by any interference (e.g. equipment failure, spectator walks on court, equipment bumped, and/or accident) Huupe Officials will re-start the Eligible Participant’s Round, including scoring and timing re-set, from the beginning. Under no circumstance shall any individual three-point shot be replayed.

10. Contest Ball/Shot Made Conditions/Rulings:

There may be circumstances whereby Huupe Officials will need to make a ruling(s) on one or more throws, Contest Ball issue(s), Round timer, Shot Made determination(s), or for any other reason in relation to an Eligible Participant’s Round. All such rulings and determinations will be made after the applicable Round is fully completed or after the Contest Period concludes (in Sponsor’s and Huupe Official’s sole and absolute discretion) for the purposes of preliminary scoring and may require review by video replay, frame-by-frame analysis, or any other recording technology. Eligible Participants should not stop or hold at any time during their Round for any rulings (unless Huupe Officials make a determination that requires a stoppage in their sole and absolute discretion).

a) A Contest Ball that spins around the top of the rim but then enters/passes completely through the hoop from above, it is considered a Shot Made.

b) If a Contest Ball spins around the top of the rim or is resting on the rim and is “helped” through the net by another Contest Ball resulting in a Contest Ball entering or passing completely through the hoop from above, it is considered a Shot Made

c) If a Contest Ball is resting within the hoop, but is caught by the net, it is considered a Shot Made.

d) Missed shots will not be replayed or replaced.

e) A Contest Ball that bounces back or is wedged between the rim and the backboard is considered a “dead ball” and will not be replayed or replaced.

f) If a Contest Ball collides with another Contest Ball or if any Contest Ball interferes with or alters the other’s trajectory or path, no point(s) will be awarded.

11. Final Scoring and Verification:

Each completed Round will be scored by a Huupe Official in accordance with the Huupe Officials’ determination(s) and in compliance with these Official Rules. Each Shot Made will earn an Eligible Participant one (1) point (“Score”). The maximum number of points per Round is twenty-five (25) points within sixty seconds (:60). Points are not earned for incomplete shots that are fumbled, dropped, missed, short, long, wedged on the Contest Hoop, not made from the three-point line marker, out of bounds, or shots thrown after the :60 Round time expires. After a Round is completed, there may be a reasonable investigation conducted by the Sponsor and Huupe Officials (at the sole discretion of the Sponsor and Huupe Officials) into a potential Shot Made, Eligible Participant’s Zone positioning, and In Bounds determinations which may include, but will not be limited to, obtaining and reviewing video footage, frame-by-frame analysis, or any available recording technology, in order to verify or overturn preliminary scoring determinations for any given completed Round. Decisions of the Sponsor/Huupe Officials with respect to the determination of an Eligible Participant’s Score, if any, are final and not subject to challenge. The review of any Shot Made or Round may occur on-site on the applicable Event Day or after the Contest Period has concluded (as determined by Sponsor and Huupe Officials in their sole and absolute discretion). Any leaderboard ranking on a given Event Day is not considered a final ranking or winning Score. Once the entire Contest Period has concluded, Huupe Officials will rank the Eligible Participants from highest to lowest Score, and then determine the winners based on the highest Scores (“Final Score(s)”) from among all Eligible Participants from all Event Days.

12. Prize(s): Up to four (4) tiers of prizes will be awarded in the Contest based on the highest Final Scores:
