The way a person must score in basketball is by throwing the ball through a hoop which is 10 feet about ground level and is attached to a rectangular backboard, usually made of fibreglass. There is a hoop at each end of the court which is 28.6m by 15.2m.
Basic rules include:
• 5 players on the court for each team at once
• A team usually has 10-12 players
• Classified as a non-contact sport
• Fouls called for hitting, slapping of arms, pushing, blocking, charging etc.
• Players are only allowed 5 fouls (6 in NBA)
• Must dribble (Bounce) the basketball in order to move
• May take two steps for a layup
• 2-3 Umpires for official games, 0 or 1 for social games
