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.

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.

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.
