VIOLATIONS IN BASKETBALL

Travelling
In basketball, traveling is a violation of the rules that occurs when a player
holding the ball moves one or both their feet illegally. Traveling is also called,
predominantly in a streetball game, "walking" or "steps".
Double dribble
In basketball, an illegal dribble occurs when a player ends their dribble by
catching or causing the ball to come to rest in one or both hands and then
dribbles it again with one hand or when a player touches it before the ball hits
the ground.
Goaltending
In basketball, goaltending refers to a rules violation in which a player
interferes with a shot by touching the ball on its downward flight to the basket
or while it is over, on, or within the rim of the basket.
Personal Foul
In basketball, a personal foul is a breach of the rules that concerns illegal
personal contact with an opponent. It is the most common type of foul in
basketball. A player fouls out on reaching a limit on personal fouls for the
game and is disqualified from participation in the remainder of the game.
Basket interference
In basketball, basket interference is the violation of (a) touching the ball or
any part of the basket (including the net) while the ball is on the rim of the
basket, (b) touching the ball when it is within the cylinder extending upwards
from the rim, (c) reaching up through the basket from below and touching the
ball, whether it is inside or outside the cylinder, or (d) pulling down on the
rim of the basket so that it contacts the ball before returning to its original
position, or during a shot attempt.
