Street ball is a game that is very similar to basketball in many ways. Street ball uses a basketball as well as a basketball hoop to be played. Street ball is often played on playgrounds. However, it also can be played in a driveway or even in a gym. In recent years, street ball has become more visible thanks to the "And 1" tour, which features street ball players from around the country who tour cities and display their street ball skills.
Difficulty: Moderate
Instructions
- Step 1Use only one side of the basketball court. Even if street ball is being played in an area where there is a full court, street ball is almost always played on a half-court. The three-point line is still in play when half-court street ball is played. Some 5-on-5 games can be played on the full court.
- Step 2Work on one-on-one match ups. Whereas basketball is a complete team name, street ball includes a lot more competition among two people, even if there are others playing the game. In order to be effective in one-on-one match ups, the street ball player must work on fake-out tricks and ball handling skills.
- Step 3Call your own fouls. When playing street ball, if a person is fouled, he needs to call "Foul." When he does this, his team gets the ball at the top of the key and retains possession. Typically fouls that are called in street ball must be fairly significant in order to be called. Touch fouls are not allowed.
- Step 4Play "win by two" games. When playing street ball, the score is kept by giving one point for each basket. If a basket is made behind the three-point line, two points can be given. In order for a team to win, it must win by at least two points. Therefore, if teams were playing to 11 and the score were 11 to 10, the team with 11 would need to score one more point to win. If the other team scores first, the first team to score 13 would be the winner, assuming the opposing team does not score again.
- Step 5Establish traveling rules. Although the rules about traveling in the NBA are explicit, the same is not true in street ball. Often in street ball, players will agree that a step can be taken before dribbling. This is not the case in the in the NBA.
