Basketball equipment

The Ball

The most important thing for training is the ball. There are certain guidelines which one needs to follow when buying a basketball. For practicing, one can play with a rubber ball. For professional competitions, one needs to use an inflated ball made of leather.

Shoes

One needs specialized shoes when playing basketball. It should be able to give better support to the ankle as compared to running shoes. The basketball shoes should be high-tipped shoes and provide extra comfort during a game. These shoes are specially designed to maintain high traction on the basketball court.


Basketball Court

The basketball court is the next important thing for shooting balls in this game. The court is usually made of wooden floorboard. The court size is about 28m x 17m according to the International standards. The National Basketball Association (NBA) regulation states the floor dimension as 29m x 15m. The standard court is rectangular in shape and has baskets placed on opposite ends.

Backboard

The backboard is the rectangular board that is placed behind the rim. It helps give better rebound to the ball. The backboard is about 1800mm in size horizontally and 1050mm vertically. Many times, backboards are made of acrylic, aluminum, steel or glass.

Uniforms

When one starts coaching a basketball team, the most important requirement for a team is to have a uniform. This helps one differentiate teams from one another. A uniform consists of a jersey (shirt), shorts, numbers on the front and back of the shirts for identification.

  1. Hello my name is Oscar and i'm going to comment my post about the basketball equipment:
    In the basketball there are different types of equipment depending if you are professional or amateur.
    The most important thing is the ball, if you don't have ball you can't practise basketball, other impotant things are the shoes, the basketball court, the backboard and if you play with a team also the uniforms, that consist in a shorts and a shith with numbers on it for identification.
    This is all, i hope you liked it.

  2. I agree with him, I think the same about the meaning of fitness.
    And the 7 different aspects that fitness includes in my opinion are correct.
    I also believe that the purpose of fitness is to improve our health and complete our daily physical activity.
    And that all the exercises that help our health should be called fitness.
