Rules of Basketball
Each team can have a maximum of 5 players on the court at any one time.
Substitutions can be made as many times as they wish within the game.

The ball can only be moved by either dribbling (bouncing the ball) or passing
the ball. Once a player puts two hands on the ball (not including catching the
ball) they cannot then dribble or move with the ball and the ball must be
passed or shot.

After the ball goes into a team’s half and they win possession back the ball
must then make it back over the halfway line within 10 seconds. If the ball
fails to do so then a foul will be called and the ball will be turned over.

Each team has 24 seconds to at least shot at the basket. A shot constitutes
either going in the basket or hitting the rim of the basket. If after the shot is
taken and the ball fails to go in the basket then the shot clock is restarted for
another 24 seconds.

The team trying to score a basket is called the offense whilst the team trying
to prevent them from scoring is called the defense. The defense must do all
they can to stop the offense from scoring by either blocking a shot or
preventing a shot from the goal.

After each successful basket, the ball is then turned over to the opponent.

Fouls committed throughout the game will be accumulated and then when
reached a certain number will be eventually be awarded as a free throw. A
free throw involves one player from the offensive team (the player fouled) to
take a shot unopposed from the free throw line. Depending on where the foul
was committed will depend on the number free throws a player gets.

Violations like travelling (taking more than one step without bouncing the
ball), double dribble (picking the ball up dribbling, stopping then dribbling
again with two hands), goal tending (a defensive player interferes with the
ball travelling downwards towards the basket) and back court violation (once
the ball passes the half way line the offensive team cannot take the ball back
over the ball half way line).

disability in sport.

involving exercise.
Develop new friendships with physically active people. Join a group, such as

Lack of energy
Schedule physical activity for times in the day or week when you feel
energetic.

Lack of motivation
Plan ahead Make physical activity a regular part of your daily or weekly
schedule and write it on your calendar.
