Have you ever had trouble playing basketball? Then this is a good quide to help you beat a competition with your friends! Just make sure to follow these rules exactly.

You Will Need

  • Basketball
  • Wide Field
  • Basket
  • Team's (optional)

Never throw the ball to anyone’s face or body part’s! It will cause serious injury!

Step 1: Getting ready

You might need a bit of power to throw the ball into the basket. Make sure it is long enough and can make it into the basket. You also need to be experienced and have lots of practice. Try practicing twice a week to get strong and prepared for a real play. You need to use as much power as you can to get the ball in to the basket and do not pass the ball to the opposing team.

Step 2: Making team's

Now start by making team’s.Try to get atleast 2~8 people and there can be only 2 teams. Then you’re ready to go! When you get surrounded then you can pass the ball to your team but throw it to teammates wisely like if a teammate was close to the basket then you throw it to him/her but be careful at all times while throwing the ball. You dont want an accident to happen. You need to progress with teamwork.

Step 3: Rules

Once your ready,start by having 2 people in the middle of the field,a few inches away. Next someone throw’s the basketball up and the 2 player’s jump and get the ball. Then you start by dribbling the ball to the other team’s basket. Dont let anyone get the ball and throw it into the basket as fast as you can and make sure you have some teammates to support you.

Step 4: Point's and Time

When the game start’s,a timer is set. The time start’s at about 3 minute’s. Each team has to get the most point’s until the timer stop’s. Try to get through by using teamwork because 2 head’s are better than 1 and pass it at the right momentum so that your team can win. Always watch fore a signal.

Step 5: Dribbling

You need trick’s and power to make it. You can dribble with one hand,with the other, or use both. Try and pass it to your team mates. You can also get the upper hand if you can throw it from a long distance but dont throw to hard! It might end up somewhere you wont expect. Dont throw it too weak,either or it’ll wind up in the opposing teams hands!

Try to throw it from a short distance. It can be helpful and long distance can miss numerous time’s.

Step 6: Throwing

One last thing, when you throw, make sure you have enough power to get the ball into the basket. You can get an extra boost by jumping then throwing so keep up the pace and your ready to throw! And you should know that if you miss, dont panic. Get the ball as quick as you can and try again. Or if a teammate is skilled at throwing then just pass the ball to him/her.

Step 7: Serious play

When your playing in a stadium or anything else that’s different by playing for fun, then you need to act serious. The timer start’s at about 3 minute’s and you need to be quick so you need to show some serious play. When you got it, you can be a master one day and play like none other had before. You still need to practice even if your a pro so it might be hard being a master.

Some weak dribbles can confuse the opposing team to give enough time to win.
