5. FOULS
• An attempt to unfairly disadvantage an
opponent through physical contact is
illegal and is called a foul. These are
most commonly committed by
defensive players; however, they can
be committed by offensive players as
well.
A player or coach who shows poor
sportsmanship, such as by arguing
with a referee or by fighting with
another player, can be charged with a
more serious foul called a technical
foul. The penalty involves free throws.
6. METHODS
• Shooting: the act of attempting
to score points by throwing the
ball through the
basket, methods varying with
players and situations.
• Passing: pass is a method of
moving the ball between
players. Most passes are
accompanied by a step forward
to increase power and are
followed through with the hands
to ensure accuracy.
7. • Dribbling: is the act of bouncing
the ball continuously with one
hand, and is a requirement for a
player to take steps with the ball.
To dribble, a player pushes the ball
down towards the ground with the
fingertips rather than patting it;
this ensures greater control.
• Blocking: a block is performed
when, after a shot is attempted, a
defender succeeds in altering the
shot by touching the ball.
