BASKETBALL
Basketball is a team sport that is played on a
rectangular court with two hoops or baskets
mounted at either end. The objective of the
game is to score points by shooting a ball
through the opponent's basket while
preventing the opposing team from doing the
same.
dr. JAMES NAISMITH
• Basketball was invented by Dr. James Naismith
• Naismith recalled a game from his younger days called "duck-on-a-rock" and
adapted it to create basketball.
• The first game of basketball was played using a soccer ball and two peach
baskets nailed several feet high as goals on a court just half the size of a
regulation court. The baskets still had their bottoms, so a long pole was used
to poke the ball out every time it was shot into the basket.
HISTORY OF BASKETBALL
• Point Guard: Typically the shortest player on the team, the point guard is responsible for bringing the ball
up the court, directing the offense, and setting up plays. They are usually quick, agile, and good ball
handlers and passers.
• Shooting Guard: Often the team's best shooter, the shooting guard is responsible for scoring points by
making shots from the perimeter or driving to the basket. They are usually taller and more athletic than
point guards, but also need to be able to handle the ball well.
• Small Forward: The small forward is a versatile player who can score from the perimeter, drive to the
basket, and rebound. They are usually taller than shooting guards and point guards, and often have a
good combination of size, speed, and athleticism.

• Power Forward: Typically the team's best rebounder and inside scorer, the power forward is responsible
for playing near the basket, setting screens, and boxing out opponents to secure rebounds. They are
usually taller and stronger than small forwards, but also need to be able to move quickly and shoot from
the perimeter.
• Center: The tallest player on the team, the center is responsible for playing near the basket on both
offense and defense. They are usually the team's best shot blocker and rebounder, and are expected to
score points by making shots from close range. Centers also need to be physically strong and able to
move quickly to defend against opponents.

SKILLS WHEN PLAYING BASKETBALL
A. DRIBBLING
Dribbling involves using your hand to bounce the ball on the ground
repeatedly, and you can do it whether you're standing still or on the
move. However, it's important to avoid hitting or slapping the ball
with your palm while dribbling. If you hold the ball in your hand or
hands, you need to either pass or shoot it. Additionally, it's not
permitted to start dribbling again after you've just stepped from a
previous dribble.
MUST REMEMBER WHEN DRIBBLING THE BALL
4. The lower you dribble/bounce the ball, the better control you have.

B. SHOOTING
To earn a point in basketball, you must aim and throw the ball
through the hoop. Consistent practice is necessary to improve your
shooting ability. When shooting, various factors need to be taken
into account, such as your location on the court, the distance
between you and the basket, the proximity of opposing players, and
the trajectory of the ball.
MUST REMEMBER WHEN SHOOTING THE BALL
2. Push the ball with your dominant hand (right/left) and being guided by the non-dominant hand
(right/left).
C. PASSING
Baseball Pass
The ball is thrown by the passer overhead. This
kind of pass is very difficult to control as it is a long
pass that travels the length of the basketball court.
The passer must execute it accurately to enable
the receiver to catch it.
Observe the following while doing the passing
skills.
4. Make sure the receiver knows that the ball is being thrown to him/ her.
