Basketball is a physical confrontation sport centered on the hands and is the core sport of the Olympic Games. The highest organization of basketball is the International Basketball Federation, which was established in 1932 and is headquartered in Geneva, Switzerland.


Once you learn the skills of dribbling and passing the ball, your basketball level will improve a lot.


When dribbling, the center of gravity should be low and stable. The height of the dribble should be below the waist. Look at the ball out of the corner of your eye to prevent the ball from hitting your feet. To master the cross dribble, shoot the ball down with your palms, not your wrists.


Good dribbling technique is when the ball "sticks" to you and follows you instead of chasing it.


Passing skills are important in basketball.


1. Master the correct passing posture


Place your hands in front of your chest with your fingers naturally apart, hold the ball with your palms out, your wrists bent back, and your legs naturally apart, shoulder-width apart. The center of gravity should be stable and the eyes should look straight ahead. Of course, you have the flexibility to use one-handed passing in close proximity to your teammates.


2. Pay attention to the direction of the pass


When passing the ball, directionality is important. After looking at the direction of his teammates, pass the ball in his own direction, sometimes not in place or being stolen by the opponent. This is because most players are constantly on the move during the game, and a pass that cannot be direct should have an arc.


Determine the player's direction in advance and pass the ball in advance.


3. Ingenious and flexible use of bouncing balls


Sometimes the high-altitude ball is easy to steal by a taller opponent. At this time, you can make clever use of the rebound ball, that is, pass it to your teammates after the floor bounces. Pay attention to mastering where the ball falls, don't use too much force when passing the ball, and try to let your teammates catch the ball comfortably.
