What is It
10
Various violations are generally called “fouls”. Disruptive physical contact (a
personal foul) is penalized, and a free throw is usually awarded to an offensive
player if he is fouled while shooting the ball. A technical foul may also be issued
when certain infractions occur, most commonly for unsportsmanlike conduct on
the part of a player or coach. A technical foul gives the opposing team a free throw.
Moreover, the opposing team retains possession of the ball.
Basketball has evolved many commonly used techniques of shooting,
passing, dribbling, and rebounding, as well as specialized player positions and
offensive and defensive structures (player positioning) and techniques. Typically,
the tallest members of the team will play “center”, “power forward” or “small
forward” positions, while shorter players or those who possess the best ball
handling skills and speed play “point guard” or “shooting guard”.
While competitive basketball is carefully regulated, numerous variations of
basketball have developed for casual play. Competitive basketball is primarily an
indoor sport played on a carefully marked and maintained basketball court, but
less regulated variations are often played outdoors in both inner city and remote
areas.
History
A number of U.S colleges adopted the game between about 1893 and 1895. In
1934, the first college games were staged in New York City’s Madison Square
Garden, and college basketball began to attract heightened interest. By the 1950s,
basketball had become a major college sport, thus paving the way for a growth of
interest in professional basketball.
The first pro league, the National Basketball League, was formed in 1898 to protect
the players from exploitation and to promote a less rough game. This league lasted
only five years before disbanding; its demise spawned a number of loosely
organized leagues throughout the northeastern United States. One of the first and
11
greatest pro teams was the Original Celtics, organized about 1915 in New York
City. They played as many as 150 games a season dominated basketball until
1936. The Harlem Globetrotters, founded in 1927, a notable exhibition team,
specializes in amusing court antics and expert ball handling.
In 1949 two subsequent professional leagues, the National Basketball
League (formed in 1937) and the Basketball Association of America (1946) merged
to create the National Basketball Association (NBA). The Boston Celtics, led by their
center Bill Russell, dominated the NBA from the late 1950s through the 1960s. by
the 1960s, pro teams from coast to coast played before crowds of many millions
annually. Wilt Chamberlain, a center for the Los Angeles Lakers, was another
leading player during the era, and his battles with Russell were eagerly anticipated.
Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, also a center, came to prominence during the 1970s. Jabbar
perfected his famed “sky hook” shot while playing for the Los Angeles Lakers and
dominated the opposition.
The NBA suffered drop-in popularity during the late 1970s, but was
resuscitated, principally through the growing popularity of its most prominent
players. Larry Bird of the Boston Celtics and Magic Johnson of the Los Angeles
Lakers are credited with injecting excitement into the league in the 1980s through
their superior skills and decade-long rivalry. During the late 1980s Michael Jordan
of the Chicago Bulls rose to stardom and helped the basketball starts, including
Shaquille O’Neal of the Orlando Magic and Larry Johnson of the Charlotte Hornets,
have sustained the NBA’s growth in.
In 1959, a Basketball Hall of Fame was founded in Springfield,
Massachusetts. Its rosters include the names of great players, coaches, referees,
and people who have contributed significantly to the development of the game.

2. DRIBBLING
- In basketball is a skill that you should
master. It allows you to move around the
court while you’re in possession of the ball. It
is a legal method that allows you to advance
with the ball and make a score as opposed to
that of passing it to a teammate to shoot it
for the basket.
This is how it’s done:
• Dribble the ball with hand and use only the tips
of your fingers in dribbling it.
• Employ wrist and the forearm to push the ball
while covering the court.
• Don’t involve the whole hand to avoid losing
control of the ball.
• Don’t keep your fingers in touch with each other
while dribbling.
• Spread your fingers to allow full control of the
ball as it dribbles.
• Dribble the ball in one side of your body and not right turn in front.
• While dribbling in one hand, use the other hand to drive your defender away
from the ball.
3. PASSING
- Basketball is a team game. By definition, that means all
players are involved with the process of playing the game
and should function as one. One of the primarily skills
created to accomplish this is passing. To learn more about
passing:
• Basically, there are 2 types of pass: air pass and bounce
pass. Air Pass travels between players without hitting the
floor. Bounce Pass is thrown to the floor so that it bounces
to the intended receiver.
• Air Passes include chest pass (a pass that originates
from the chest to the receiver’s chest level); and overhead pass (a pass that
originates from the forehead).
• In executing bounce passes, calculate about 3/3 distance from the receiver
as the hitting point so that the ball bounces right to your receiver.
• A good pass is a pass a teammate can catch.
• When passing, step toward the receiver.
• When catching, step toward the pass.
• Like shooting, the ball should have a backspin to it. This is accomplished by
following through on every pass.
13
4. REBOUNDING
Is one of the major aspects of the game. It is your ability to
jump with power to gain possession of the ball as it bounces to
the rim after a failed shot before it touches the floor. Just how
important is rebounding? Whenever you grab a rebound,
your team gains a chance to shoot again while the other team
actually loses it. The difference is double. So, how to make a
good rebound, here’s how:
(courtdimensions n.d.)
Court Dimensions
The size of the court depends on the playing level. The size of the court for
NBA and college games is 94 feet and 50 feet wide. It is smaller for high school and
junior high.
The Backboard and Rim
The regulation height above the ground for the rim (hoop) is 10 feet, and the
rim is 18 inches in diameter. Backboards are six feet wide (72 inches) by 42 inches
tall, with the inner square being 24 inches wide by 18 inches tall.
The Foul Line
For all size court the ‘foul line’ is 15 feet in front of the backboard.
14
The Key
The key is 12 feet wide, and is the same for all basketball courts. The
backboard extends four feet out over the baseline into the key. A half of the
diameter 6 foot extends from the foul line away from the basket to complete the
key.
The 3-Point Line (Arc)
For NBA Basketball Courts the 3 points arc is 22 feet to the center of the rim
on the sides with a straight line extending out of 16 feet 9 inches from the baseline.
Past those points, the line extends out 23 feet 9 inches from the center of the rim.
Line Markings
All line markings on the floor are two inches wide and can vary in color.
B. Ball
The basketball is an inflated sphere with an outer covering. It is 75 to 78 cm
in circumference and weighs 600-650 grams. It must be made of a leather in the
official FIBA competitions.
C. Basket
Basket is also called goal. It is made up of horizontal circular metal rim.
With net hanging from it. It is mounted 3.05 m above floor level.
D. Backboard
The rigid rectangular board behind the rim. Standard widths are 24” to 42”,
44” to 48”, 60” TO 72”.
E. Shoes
High- topped shoes.
Officiating Officials / Rules and Regulations of Basketball
The Officiating Staff
The makeup of the officiating corps is strictly a matter of choice. The
minimum number is five: a referee, an umpire, a scorer, a timer, and a shot-clock
operator. In some cases, eight officials are used in a lineup comprising a referee,
two umpires, a shot-clock operator, two scorers, and two timers.
Referee is Official-in-Charge
The referee is the official that controls the game. He is the one who tosses
the ball up for the center jump at the start of the game and each overtime period.
The duties range from inspecting and approving all equipment before the game’s
starting time to approving the final score. In between, the referee is responsible for
the notification of each team three minutes before each half is to begin and
deciding matters of disagreement among the officials. The referee has the power to
make decisions on any point not specifically covered in the rules and even to forfeit
the game if necessary.
Officials Conduct Game
During actual play, here is no practical difference between the referee and
umpire(s). They are equally responsible for the conduct of the game; and because of
the speed of the play, their duties are dictated essentially by their respective
positions on the court from moment to moment. For this reason, the rules specify
that no official has the authority to question decisions made by another official. The
official’s control, which begins 30 minutes before starting time for men and 15
minutes for women and concludes with the referee’s approval of the final score,
includes the power to eject from the court any player, coach, or team follower who
is guilty of flagrant unsporting conduct. When the referee leaves the confines of the
playing area at the end of the game, the score is final and may not be changed.
As we pointed out earlier, jump all occur only at the start of the game and all
overtimes; but officials still must concentrate upon throwing the ball up straight. At
other times, play resumes with a throw-in. the team that fails to get the ball after
the first center jump will begin the alternating process.
15
Official’s Signals
When a foul occurs, the official is required by the rules to (a) signal the timer
to stop the clock, (b) designate the offender to the scorer and (c) use his or her
fingers to indicate the number of free throws. When a team is entitled to a throw-in,
an official must (a) signal what caused the ball to become dead, (b) indicate the
throw-in sport (except after a goal) and (c) designates the team entitled to the
throw-in.
