BASIC SKILLS IN BASKETBALL
​
Mastering the basic skills in basketball is fundamental to a player’s
development and success in the sport.​These core competencies serve as
the building blocks upon which more advanced techniques are built,
providing a solid foundation for both individual and team play. Essential
skills such as dribbling, shooting, passing, defense, and rebounding are not
only critical for effective gameplay but also contribute to a player's overall
understanding of basketball strategy and teamwork.
INTRODUCTION
Basketball is a team game. Wherein the players are involve with
the process of playing the game and function as one primary
skills is created to accomplish the passing. Which remains one of
the most under- taught, under-emphasized, and under drilled skill
in the game.
Lesson1
PASSING
Passing is a vital skill in basketball that significantly
influences team dynamics and game outcomes. Without
effective passing, basketball would resemble an
individual sport rather than a team-oriented game. It
enables players to collaborate and strategize, creating
scoring opportunities and facilitating teamwork. ​
The
significance of passing cannot be overstated, as it is
crucial for a team's offensive efficiency and overall
success.
Types of Passes
There are several types of passes that players can utilize
to enhance their gameplay:
Chest Pass: This is executed with both hands at chest
level, allowing for quick, accurate deliveries to
teammates.
Bounce Pass: Thrown to the floor, the
bounce pass travels to the recipient while
bouncing, effectively eluding defenders who
may block direct passes.
Overhead Pass: Used to clear defenders,
the ball is brought above the head and
thrown downward to a target, ensuring it
reaches the teammate swiftly.
Wrap-Around Pass: This pass is used to circumvent
defenders, enabling players to make precise deliveries
from difficult angles.
Behind-the-Back Pass: Employed to avoid a defender,
this creative pass is executed by wrapping the ball
around the back.
Each type of pass serves specific situations on the
court, making it essential for players to practice and
develop proficiency in them.
Lesson2
DRIBBLING
Is the legal method of advancing the ball by oneself,
as opposed passing it to another player or shooting for
the basket. It consists of bouncing the ball on the floor
continuously with one hand while walking or running
down the court.
This skill involves bouncing the ball while moving, allowing
a player to advance on the court while maintaining
control. The ability to dribble effectively is crucial for
navigating through defenders and creating scoring
opportunities.
The dribble allows for much faster advancement and thus
more opportunities for scoring. It also provides an
opportunity for a crafty player on the opposing team to
“steal” the ball in mid-bounce. Once a player stops
dribbling the ball and holds it, the player normally must
either pass it to another player or take a shot; if the player
dribbles and then holds the ball in any way (either
grasping it with his hand or arms, or “palming” it, i.e.
holding it too much toward its underside during the act of
dribbling) then continues to “carrying”, and turns the ball
over to the other team. A “double-dribble” may also
called if the player tries to dribble with both hands at the
same time.
High Dribble
A high dribble is a normal dribble, usually used
when there are no defenders around you to steal
the ball.
 Low Dribble
In low dribble, the player keeps the ball
low to the floor, thus decreasing the area
between the hand and the floor, making it
more difficult to steal.
Speed dribbling is a critical skill that enables players to
move quickly with the basketball, facilitating fast breaks
and offensive plays. It is particularly effective for
perimeter players, allowing them to outpace defenders
and create scoring opportunities. Mastering speed
dribbling is essential for any player looking to enhance
their effectiveness on the court, as it combines speed,
control, and agility in a dynamic manner.
The switch dribble, also known as the crossover
dribble, is a fundamental ball-handling technique in
basketball that allows players to change direction
quickly while maintaining control of the ball. ​
This
move is essential for creating separation from
defenders and establishing offensive advantages on
the court​
.
Lesson3
SHOOTING
Is the act of attempting to score points by throwing the ball
through the basket, methods varying with player and situations.
A player faces the basket with both feet facing the basket.
Player may shoot directly into the basket or may use the
backboard to redirect the ball into the basket.
There are many ways to shoot in basketball, from layups to jump shots,
each requiring different techniques and suiting various situations. ​
Familiarity with these shots is essential for scoring effectively​
.
Basic Shot Types
Layup: A layup is a close-range shot, typically utilizing the backboard when
approaching the hoop from an angle. It's a fundamental shot made while moving
towards the basket, often involving banking the ball off the backboard
Jump Shot: A jump shot is executed by releasing the ball at the
peak of a jump. It is frequently employed for mid to long-range
shots, including attempts beyond the arc. Proper form is crucial for
a consistent jump shot, which involves a balanced stance, focus
on the target, and smooth release
Free Throw: A free
throw is an uncontested
shot taken from the free-
throw line, 15 feet (4.57
meters) from the
backboard. It is
awarded after a foul,
providing an opportunity
to score one point.
Consistency in form and
routine are key to
making free throws.
Three-Point Shot: A three-point shot is attempted from beyond
the three-point arc, a semi-circle at a fixed distance from the
basket. Successfully making a shot from this distance awards
three points, making it a valuable tool for stretching the defense
and closing score gaps.
Bank Shot: A bank shot
involves aiming the ball off
the backboard so it goes
into the basket. This type
of shot is effective from
angles and can be a
reliable method from
certain spots on the court.
Hook Shot: A hook shot is characterized by shooting the ball
with one arm in a sweeping motion, with the shooter's body
between the ball and the defender. This shot is typically used near
the basket and is challenging to block due to its sweeping motion
and body positioning
Dunk: A dunk, or
slam dunk, involves
jumping and scoring
by putting the ball
directly through the
hoop, often with
one or both hands
touching the rim.
Dunks are high-
percentage shots
that can shift the
game's momentum
