~HISTORY OF BASKETBALL~
 Basketball was invented in December 1891 by
the Canadian-American clergyman, educator,
and physician James Naismith, then an
instructor at the Young Men’s Christian
Association Training School (now Springfield
College) in Springfield, Mass.
 At first, James Naismith wrote the basic rules and
nailed a peach basket onto a 10-foot (3.05 m)
elevated track. The ball that used in early stage
was football. A team would gain a point when the
person got the ball in the basket.

 First official game was

played in the YMCA
gymnasium on
January 20, 1892 with
nine players and the
game ended at 1-0 and
the shot was made
from 25 feet (7.6 m),
on a court just half
the size of a present-
day NBA court

 Women's basketball began in 1892 at Smith
College when Senda Berenson, a physical
education teacher, modified Naismith's rules for
women.
 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.
 first balls made specifically for basketball were
brown, and it was only in the late 1950s that

(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~~
(EQUIPMENT)
 The only essential equipment in basketball is the
basketball and the court: a flat, rectangular
surface with baskets at opposite ends.
 Clocks, score sheets, scoreboard(s), alternating
possession arrows, and whistle-operated stop-
clock systems are required.
 A regulation basketball court in international
games is 28 by 15 meters (approx. 92 by 49 ft)
and in the NBA is 94 by 50 feet (29 by 15 m).
Most courts are made of wood. A steel basket
with net and backboard hang over each end of
the court. At almost all levels of competition, the
top of the rim is exactly 10 feet (3.05 m) above
the court and 4 feet (1.2 m) inside the baseline.

(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.

(COMMON AND BASIC TECHNIQUES)
1) SHOOTING
 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
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.
4) DRIBBLING

 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 A U.S. Naval Academy ("Navy") player,

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.
