According to Ahmadi (2007: 2) basketball game is a simple game, easy to learn and mastered perfectly which also demands the need to do a good exercise (discipline) in order to form teamwork.

Basic Techniques of Basketball Games

In this period of coaching and training they are taught how to do the basic technique properly. The basic technique in basketball game, which is as follows:

  1. How to Hold the Ball

Although it seems something simple and often underestimated but holding a basketball is not arbitrary, there are techniques to be done so that the ball is really in control of our hands and not apart.

The basic techniques of holding the right basketball, are as follows:

Hold the basketball with both hands
To hold the ball both palms should be opened wide as does holding a large bowl
Both palms are on the right and left side of the ball and are slightly behind
The fingers are stretched all out and attached to the center of the right and left sides of the ball
Both legs opened wide, positioning one leg slightly forward
The body is slightly leaning forward and the knee is not rigid (relaxed)

  1. Passing and Catching (Throwing and Capturing Ball)

Throwing and catching the ball (passing and catching) is a movement that refers to giving and receiving feedback between players in a team. Basketball has a very fast game rhythm therefore good teamwork is needed in this game to score. Giving and receiving feedback will go smoothly as planned only if the team has a solid teamwork.

How to catch a ball

Grab the ball with the palms of your hands wide open and the fingers outstretched
As soon as the ball is in the palm of the hand, grip the ball by stretching the finger as wide as possible to the side of the ball as it is pulled backwards towards the body

Throwing the ball (passing) consists of 5 ways, among others

Chest Pass: throws the ball from the chest position
Overhead Pass: throws the ball from the position above the head
Bounce Pass: throw the ball by bouncing the ball to the floor
Baseball Pass: throws the ball from above or behind the head
Behind Back Pass: throws the ball from behind the body by bouncing to the floor

Dribbling .

According to Ambler Vic (1990: 10) dribble in the game of basketball is a movement to bring the ball by bouncing it to the floor. Based on the notion put forward by Ambler Vic, it can be concluded that dribbling or dribbling is a way to bring the ball by bouncing it to the floor which can be done with two hands or one hand alternately both while running fast and half running. One important point to consider in this dribbling motion is to keep hand control over the ball so that the ball is not seized by the opposing team.

Dribble consists of two ways: low dribbling (position below knee) and high dribble (higher position than knee). Both of these techniques have their respective goals of low dribbling to protect the ball from the opponent's reach while dribbling high in preparation for an attack to the opponent's defense area.

The steps to be taken to dribble, are as follows:

Bounces the ball to the floor with one hand
Controlling the ball in the fingers of the fingers, keeping the ball motionless with no direction
When the ball is reflected, the hand must follow the direction of the ball and as soon as possible to put the palm of the hand on the ball
When dribbling, the elbow of the hand should be straight while the wrist is flexed
The body should not be too upright but must be in a half-bent state, it aims to make it easier dribble
The head is perpendicular to the front, this is to see the opponent in front of the eye
Utilizing both hands in dribbling the ball, so that the ball is in our hands is not easily taken by the opponent to play
In dribbling, players can only reflect the ball to the floor after performing three-step movement. If this is violated it will be considered a violation, and the ball moves under the control of the opposing team.

The normal duration of a basketball game is for 2x 20 minutes net, without countless rest periods. Time off for 10 minutes, time out 2 times for each team in each round for 1 minute. While in a professional match (not a friendly match) if within 2 rounds the points of both teams are the same, it will be extended. This time extension can occur more than once, until the point difference is created. Giving time of this renewal is every 5 minutes.

There is a difference of professional class playing time with mini basketball games for children under 13 years old. In the mini basketball game, the ball is used smaller and lighter and the position of the ring / basket is lower. The duration of playing a mini basketball game is 4 x 10 minutes with 3 breaks.

Numbers / points will be given only if the ball goes into the ring / basket from above, not vice versa. If the ball is inserted in the shooting area, then the resulting number is 2. While if the ball is inserted from the middle of the field or outside the shooting area (area three point), then the resulting number is 3.
