BASKETBALL RULES AND REGULATION

The rules of basketball can vary slightly depending on the level of play (for example
professional rules differ from college rules) or where the game is played (international rules are
different from USA professional rules). These rule differences, however, are usually just variations on
the basic game of basketball and the majority of the rules discussed below can be applied to most
any game of basketball played.
The winner of a basketball game is the team with the most points. You get points by
throwing the basketball through the opponent's hoop or basket. In regular play a basket made from
within the three point line is worth 2 points and a basket shot from outside the three point line is worth
three points. When shooting a free throw, each free throw is worth 1 point.

Rules for the Offense

The basketball team on offense is the team with the basketball. When a player has the
basketball there are certain rules they must follow:
1) The player must bounce, or dribble, the ball with one hand while moving both feet. If, at any
time, both hands touch the ball or the player stops dribbling, the player must only move one
foot. The foot that is stationary is called the pivot foot.
2) The basketball player can only take one turn at dribbling. In other words, once a player has
stopped dribbling they cannot start another dribble. A player who starts dribbling again is called
for a double-dribbling violation and looses the basketball to the other team. A player can only
start another dribble after another player from either team touches or gains control of the
basketball. This is usually after a shot or pass.
3) The ball must stay in bounds. If the offensive team looses the ball out of bounds the other
team gets control of the basketball.
4) The players hand must be on top of the ball while dribbling. If they touch the bottom of the
basketball while dribbling and continue to dribble this is called carrying the ball and the player
will lose the ball to the other team.
5) Once the offensive team crosses half court, they may not go back into the backcourt. This is
called a backcourt violation. If the defensive team knocks the ball into the backcourt, then the
offensive team can recover the ball legally.

Defensive Rules
The team on defense is the team without the basketball.
 The main rule for the defensive player is not to foul. A foul is described as gaining an unfair
advantage through physical contact. There is some interpretation that has to be made by the
referee, but, in general, the defensive player may not touch the offensive player in a way that
causes the offensive player to lose the ball or miss a shot.

Rules for Everyone

1) Although the foul rule is described above as a defensive rule, it applies exactly the same to all
players on the court including offensive players.
2) Basketball players cannot kick the ball or hit it with their fist.
3) No player can touch the basketball while it is traveling downward towards the basket or if it is
on the rim. This is called goaltending. (touching the ball on the rim is legal in some games).

Every player on the court is subject to the same rules regardless of the position they
play. The positions in basketball are just for team basketball strategy and there are no positions in the
rules.

VOLLEYBALL RULES AND REGULATIONS

A point or rally is started when one team serves the ball. The player serving the ball
must stand behind the end line or restraining line at the back of the court until after they have
contacted the volleyball. To serve a player hits the ball with their hand over the net and into the
opposing team's side. If the ball doesn't go over the net or hits the ground, the point is over. The
opposing team must now return the ball without letting it hit the ground. They can hit the ball up to
three times. No single player can hit the ball twice in a row (blocks don't count). Typically a team will
try to set up an attack. They use the first two hits to set the ball for a spike or hard hit over the net.
The two teams continue hitting the ball back and forth until the point ends. A point can end by one
team hitting a winning shot that hits the ground within the opponent's court or by one team causing a
fault and losing the point.
Which volleyball team serves the ball is determined by the previous point. Whoever won
the previous point gets to serve next. At the start of a match, the first serve is determined by a volley.

Court Dimensions
Court Positions

 Right Back (RB)– A setter begins the game from this

position. A right back is known as the zone 1 (Z1)
position. It is a defensive zone, and while rotation, a
player stepping in this position has to serve.
 Right Front (RF) – This is the zone 2 (Z2) position, and is
placed right in front of the right back. A player positioned
in this spot is at the front-right side of the court, near the
net.
 Middle/Center Front (CF) – A position in the front row,
right at the center near the net is the middle front spot. It
is the zone 3 (Z3) position, and the player is in a rotational
position.
 Left Front (LF) – A player in this spot is positioned at the
front-left of the court near the net. It is the zone 4 (Z4)
position, and also known to be an attacking position.
 Left Back (LB) – This is a rotational position and is
situated at the left extreme of the back row. It is a
defensive and zone 5 (Z5) position.
 Middle/Center Back (CB) – This is a zone 6 (Z6)
position, and usually a middle hitter begins to play on this
spot at the start of the game. He is later replaced by a
libero, who is a specialized player for this position.

Team Rotation
Although players play certain roles on a volleyball team, they all must play all positions.
There are three players on the front line and three in the back. Each time a team gains the serve they
must rotate. The entire team rotates in a clockwise manner with one player moving to the front line
and another player moving to the back line. This way each player plays each spot.

Scoring
Scoring in volleyball is pretty simple, but it also has changed over time. Most matches
are divided up into sets. A typical match may be a best of 5 sets where the first team to win 5 sets
wins the match. In each set, the first team to 25 points wins as long as they are 2 points ahead. A
point is scored on every rally, regardless of which team serves.

Volleyball Faults
There are several ways to fault and lose the point. Here are some examples:
 Hitting the volleyball illegally - you must strike the ball in a manner such that you don't hold the
ball or palm, carry, or throw it.
 Stepping over or on the line while serving
 Not hitting the ball over the net
 Touching the net
 Reaching under the net and interfering with a player or the ball
 Not serving in the correct order
 Hitting the volleyball out of bounds
 Double hitting - when the same player hits the ball twice in a row
 Hitting the ball more than 3 times

Timeouts
If a player is injured, the game goes into an automatic 30-second timeout. If the injured
player is unable to continue playing within this time frame, he needs to be replaced, or his team
needs to take a technical timeout. Each team can take two technical timeouts per set, each being of
60 seconds duration. There is no timeout allowed in the fifth (deciding) set.
