Skills you need for Basketball....

                The first thing you need to know is how to shoot the ball. Shooting is very easy.  All you have to do is shoot correctly.   Just put your hands in the right place,and when you shoot you should always aim at the square on the backboard and normaly it goes in!
               When you want to shoot the ball up, you should not just throw it up in there and hope it will go in...because it won't!  You have to line yourself up,and put your hands the right way.  For instance,  you would put your hand that you write with on the the bottom of the ball and the hand that you don't write with on the side. Then, simply bend your knees and remove your hands from the ball and throw it up very hard.  Aim for the backboard.You should always practice shooting!
    Rebounding is by far the easiest basketball skill in basketball!  All you have to do just jump very high. Also use your bottom to box out the other player.
  Dribbling is also very easy!  You just have to have good control over the ball.  Also, you must keep your head up when you are dribbing,so you can see if your team mates are open so you can pass to them!  If you want to be a good dribbler you must constantly practice dribbling!
