There are five players that will start out in the game which are called your starters. You always have five players in the game at all time. The are what are called fouls in basketball. Fouls can hurt you if you're down in the game with very few time left. Here are some examples of fouls, technical foul, personal foul, and a charging foul. Here are some other ruler that you can’t do that are not fouls, travel, double dribble, three second violation, and a five second violation. The object in basketball is to get as many points into the basketball hoop. You can get a three or a two pointer. There are many ruler and ways to teach the game of

II.     As well as using your lower body, it is also essential to use your upper body in order to maximize the chance to score.

Opponent Three at 3-point line as displayed in Figure 14. While this transition occurs, Player Five must also quickly drop down to guard Opponent Four at the low post and Player One must also come down to the high post in order to deny the pass to Opponent Five. Also, Player Three should move down closer to the 3-point line in order to help defend, but also to be in the passing lane back to Opponent One. Lastly, Player Four should come into the paint and must be ready to defend the lob pass to Opponent Four and to defend the high post if Opponent Five receives the ball; Player Four must also be ready to run out to the wing and guard the 3-point shot of Opponent Two if the ball is skipped across the court.

The timing of the shot is the last, and most important part of the shot.

Watching the game of basketball can be really fun and exciting and fun thrilling when you team wins. A lot of people watch the National Basketball Association, NBA, which is a league for men who want to play basketball as their jobs. Shaq is a famous player and he makes the game fun to watch, but he is a terrible free throw shooter.

To show the referee, the opponent jumps on top of the poor free throw shooter. They could get hurt and players want that to change. Also, the pace of the games become really slow when the strategy is being used. It gets boring for the viewers to watch the same guy miss more free throws.

In the article Basketball’s Jump-Shot Revolution, the writer Shawn Fury displays the main differences of when the jump shot was invented and what it has become today. As stated in the opening paragraph it is mentioned that the jump shot has developed into what many younger players cannot accomplish and that is a jump shot from long distance. The beginning of the jump shot was intended to rise above the defender to release the ball where no player can block, but as time went on the jump shot has become a long range toss up where there is no defender believing there is even a shot to block.

The methods of data collection I will use to analyze Carolyn’s movement skills in the fouls shot are a digital camcorder recording of sagittal plane of her dominant side, also frontal plane view. I will use Coaches Eye, a video recording application. Three times will be recorded for analysis. I also will physically record on a chart. My limitations will be the environment because I will have to conduct this analysis outside of a gym, so I will not have a basketball hoop but I will have a goal for Carolyn to aim for. With this data that I will apply it to what I have researched about gaining and practicing the best skill for the ultimate performance. Then I will have my subject Carolyn practice and then re analyze her movement’s.

free throw. I thought by looking more closely at the details of a movement I

In comparison, When the athlete leans from the backswing and transfers weight into the front swing, it can be observed that the athlete’s left arm bends when rotating the torso, meaning that there is a lack of force and lack of projectile motion applied from the left forearm, and therefore, this causes the athlete’s arms to curve and hence has a natural tendency towards a fade shot. (Refer to appendix

Preparation Phase- (Weight on back foot, wrist cocked, visualizing the placement of the ball.) Stability and Balance- The weight is on the back foot and there is control before executing the shot. The base of support is also shown through the image with the Centre of gravity through the base of support. Transfer and Conservation of Momentum -

The more and more I look around I begin to see how physics are integrated into practically everything that we do. These things would surely go unnoticed without making a conscious effort to notice them. For example simple things like riding a bike, or driving a car, or playing catch with a son or daughter. Just as these activities are loaded with elements of physics, sports are also, especially basketball. Physics play a part in every aspect of the game, from dribbling, passing, and shooting, to things as simple as setting a screen. First we should take a look at the elements of dribbling.

The most important part of the game of basketball is shooting the basketball, after all the object of the game is to put the basketball through the basket. A
