 ➤BASKETBALL

⇒ Basketball is a fast-paced team sport where two teams compete to score points by shooting a ball through the opponent's hoop.

Basic Rules:

• Teams: Each team has five players on the court.
• Scoring: Points are scored by shooting the ball through the hoop: 2 points for field goals made inside the three-point line, 3 points for shots made beyond the line, and 1 point for free throws.
• Dribbling: Players must dribble (bounce) the ball while moving; double dribbling (stopping and then restarting) is not allowed.
• Fouls: Physical contact can lead to fouls, and players can shoot free throws if fouled during a shooting attempt.

Positions:

1. Point Guard: Typically the team leader and primary ball-handler.
2. Shooting Guard: Often the best shooter, focused on scoring.
3. Small Forward: Versatile player who can score and defend.
4. Power Forward: Plays near the basket, combining size with skill.
5. Center: Usually the tallest player, focused on rebounding and close-range scoring
