For you to fully enjoy basketball you must first know about the rules for them.
Here are some:
– Each team can have a maximum of 5 players on the court at any one time. Substitutions can be made as many times as they wish within the game.
– The ball can only be moved by either dribbling (bouncing the ball) or passing the ball.
– After the ball goes into a team’s half and they win possession back the ball must then make it back over the half way line within 10 seconds. If the ball fails to do so then a foul will be called and the ball will be turned over.
Winning the Game
Winning it is really simple, the outcome depends on the scores of your team and the enemy team. The team that has the higher score will win
Objective of the Game
The objective of the game is of course to throw the ball into a basket. The game is played out on a rectangular court and depending on which section of court you successfully throw a ball into the basket will depend on how many points are scored.
Score System
There are three scoring numbers for basketball players. Any basket scored from outside the three point arc will result in three points being scored, and baskets inside of the arc will result in 2 and for the last one there are free throws for every successful free throw you can earn 1 point, the number of free throws will be based on where the foul was commited.
