Red Bull Half Court games, which feature teams of three players, only occupy half the court, in contrast to traditional basketball.  Games are played according to FIBA regulations, with a 10-minute regulation time limit and a 21-point maximum.  The player who scores the most points in regulation time or who reaches the maximum number of points first wins each match.

Teams that score the most points in all of their games will get the "Own the Court" bonus, which will assist them move on to the next round and give the game an unexpected twist.  Three-point shots may be made from two special circles behind the arc, which speeds up and intensifies the game.

With a new two-day tournament structure for qualifying rounds, Red Bull Half Court, in collaboration with 7-Eleven, ramps up the ante for its 2025 season in the Philippines.  Regional qualifiers are scheduled for August 30 and 31 in Davao, September 13 and 14 in Cebu, and September 27 and 28 in Manila.  On the first day, there will be elimination rounds, and on the second day, there will be the qualifier match.  The Red Bull Half Court National Final in Manila, which takes place on October 18, will see the winning teams from each regional qualification compete against a few wildcard teams for the opportunity to represent the Philippines at the Red Bull Half Court World Final in the United Arab Emirates.
