The point of the game is to get a round ball into a 24 inch hoop.  If you  make a shot from anywhere it is 2 points. If someone fouls you while you are shooting and you miss the shot, you get 2 foul shots on the foul line, each is 1 point. If someone fouls you when you are shooting and you make the shot you get the 2 points plus one foul shot.  If you are fouled when you are not shooting your team gets the ball back. If you get
to many fouls you have to leave the game. Normaly the number of fouls ranges from 4-6 before you get knocked out of the game. There is a semi circle line on the court, if you shoot from behind the line it is a 3 point shot.
