Basic rules of the game

Game idea- Each team consist of 5 players and up to 7 substitute players- 4 quarters of each 10 minutes- If a player makes contact, a foul is called. You are only allowed to have five fouls- to encourage a fast game, you have to try scoring in 24 second- likewise, you have to get ball over middlle before 8 seconds, and when done you cannot play the ball back to your own side of the court- out of bounce always from nearest line- each game starts with a tipp-off- jump-ball: if two oppponents both get a grip on the ball and its impossible to get the ball without rough play, a jump-ball is called. Possesion then

alternates

You may- dribble with one hand at the time for as long as you want- cath the ball, dribble and catch again and then attempt to shoot or pass- to pivot: moving one foot as much as you like whilst keeping the other foot at the same spot without lifting it- to score from every where on the floor. You can score three or two points, and free throws is one point
