Introduction

4. Uniforms
First,you have to usually wear a
jersey, shorts, and sneakers too,
because if you wear boots when
you make a shot you will probably
fall.Why would you fall?You would
fall because boots have slippery
treds. The jersey is to tell you who
your guarding,guarding is a whole
other chapter. And the shorts,If you
want to play basket ball and you
wear khaki pants you will be panting
like a dog!So remember only wear a
jersey,shorts and sneakers too.

5. Lets Play!
The object of the game is to get more
baskets than the other team. Rebounding is
vary important. Rebounding is where the
other team shoots and you get the ball
while its falling. That's a rebound. Another
thing you have to do is dribble. Dribbling is
where you bounce the ball with your finger
pads. And you can't forget lay-ups!A lay-up
is where there's a rebounder and there's a
shooter the shooter takes a shot and the
rebounder gets the ball,dribbles over and
passes to the next person in line.

6. The Hoop
What dose the hoop look like?
The hoop looks like a piece of
string that is weaved in a
certain way. The hoop,I
would say is the most
important place on the
court.It's where you make
baskets!There is travel basket
ball.It's where you travel
around to different places and
play basket ball.And there's
normal basket ball I told you
how to play that already.

7. Teams
Team mates.They
help you!The other
team on the other
hand dose not help
you.You do not want
to like the other
team.Say the other
team got the ball
and you were
chatting with your
best friend.I
wouldn't do that.
