How Do You Play Basketball?

Answer Question

3 Answers - Sort by: Date | Rating

    Basketball is one of the most popular games in the world. It is a team game played between two teams consisting of 5 players each. The primary objective of this game is to make as many points as possible. The team with the highest points wins. In order to get points a player has to shoot the ball in to a hoop. Each team has their own hoop and there are two hoops altogether that are placed on opposite sides of the basketball court.

    The rules of the game are quite simple. No player is permitted to run with the ball instead they must dribble the ball. A violation in basketball pertains to handling the ball in a illegal way. A foul is wrongful physical contact between players of opposite teams- like pushing, shoving and the like.

      In this game, two teams play against each other. Each team has five players who try to score points by throwing a ball through the basket present at two points on the ground. The team with more points wins at the end of the game. If the ball is put with a regular jump from inside the arch is given two points; one beyond arch is given three points; and one point is given for a free throw. There are rules and regulations to play any game.

      They players practice shooting, passing, rebounding and dribbling. You shoot or throw the ball into the basket to take points. Bouncing the ball when you have is dribbling. Then, you pass on the ball to your team mate. You have to create pathway or positions and offensive (attacking) and defensive structures. Defensive pathway keeps the player from getting a shooting.
