BASKETBALL TODAY~~ (PLAYING REGULATIONS) Games are played in four quarters of 10 (international)

or 12 minutes (NBA). Five players from each team (out of a twelve player

roster) may be on the court at one time. Substitutions are unlimited but can only be done when play is stopped and coach are required.

A standard uniform consists of a pair of shorts and a jersey with a clearly visible number, printed on both the front and back.

A limited number of time-outs, clock stoppages requested by a coach for a short meeting with the players, are allowed.

The game is controlled by the officials consisting of the referee, one or two umpires and the table officials.

BASKETBALL TODAY~~(FOULS) An attempt to unfairly disadvantage an opponent

through physical contact is illegal and is called a foul. A player or coach who shows poor sportsmanship, for

instance, by arguing with a referee or by fighting with another player, can be charged with a more serious foul called a technical foul.

If a team exceeds a certain limit of team fouls in a given period (quarter or half) – four for NBA and international games – the opposing team is awarded one or two free throws on all subsequent fouls for that period.

Commits five fouls (including technical fouls), or in an NBA game, commits six fouls (excluding technical fouls) is not allowed to participate for the rest of the game, and is said to have "fouled out".

The referee signals that a foul has been committed.

BASKETBALL TODAY~~(COMMON AND BASIC TECHNIQUES)

Shooting is the act of attempting to score points by throwing the ball through the basket. While methods can vary with players and situations.

There are some common shot such as:

i) Set shot ii) Jump shot iii) Lay up iv) Slam dunk v) Air-ball

1) SHOOTING

Player releases a short jump shot, while her defender is either knocked down, or trying to "take a charge."

2) REBOUNDING The objective of rebounding is to successfully

gain possession of the basketball after a missed field goal or free throw, as it rebounds from the hoop or backboard.

Plays a major role in the game, there are two categories of rebounds:

i) Offensive Rebounds ii) Defensive Rebounds

3) PASSING A pass is a method of moving the ball

between players. A staple pass is the chest pass. Another type

of pass is the bounce pass. The overhead pass is used to pass the ball

over a defender. The outlet pass occurs after a team gets a

defensive rebound. The next pass after the rebound is the outlet pass.

Another advanced style of passing is the behind-the-back pass, throwing the ball behind the passer's back to a teammate.

Dribbling is the act of bouncing the ball continuously.

Good dribblers tend to bounce the ball low to the ground, reducing the travel from the floor to the hand, making it more difficult for the defender to "steal" the ball.

A skilled player can dribble without watching the ball, using the dribbling motion or peripheral vision to keep track of the ball's location.

4) DRIBBLING

5) BLOCKING A block is performed when, after a shot is

attempted, a defender attempts to alter the shot by touching the ball.

In almost all variants of play, it is illegal to touch the ball after it is in the downward part of its arc; this is known as goaltending.

With good timing and sufficient vertical leap, even shorter players can be effective at blocking shots.
