The written step-by-step video tutorial:

Intro: Start off with a pencil sketch. In the beginning stages, don’t press down too hard. Use light, smooth strokes for sketching.

Step 1: Draw a small, angled line similar to the letter L for the basketball player's nose. At the bottom of the line, to the right, draw two tiny, curved lines for the nostril.

Step 2: At the top of the nose, on the left side, draw a short, angled line for the first eyebrow. To the right, draw the other eyebrow the same way. The basketball player's eyebrows should be similar to upside- down check marks.

Step 3: Under each eyebrow, draw a small, triangular shape for the basketball player's eyes. If you'd like, you can add a dot inside each eye for pupils, but the character looks cool with blank eyes.

Step 4: Under the nose, draw a thin, rectangular shape for the mouth. Make the sides of the basketball player's mouth pointy. Draw a short line below the mouth for the lower lip.

Step 5: Draw a curved, vertical line above the eye on the left for the forehead. Below the eye on the left, draw a wavy line for the rest of the face. Sketch lightly at first to get the shape right. There should be a bump below the eye for the basketball player's cheekbone. Only darken the line when you get the shape right. At the bottom, curve the line to the right to create the chin.

Games and relays (basketball) | Material on physical education on the topic:

Game basketball exercises.

When teaching team sports, it is impossible to build a lesson without game exercises leading to the study of the main game. They help to work out a particular skill, to consolidate the material covered in a playful way. What game exercises are best used in basketball lessons?

Running after the ball.

Players line up in 3s or 4s at the free throw line. In front of each column at a distance of 3 m is a captain with a ball. On a signal from the teacher, he passes the ball to the first player in the column, who, having caught the ball, passes it back, runs after him and stands behind the captain. He catches the ball and passes it to the second player, who repeats the actions of the first, and so on. The game ends when the whole team lines up behind the captain (see fig. 1).

Fig. 1

Ball to center.

Option 1. Players line up in three circles. In the middle of each circle is the captain with the ball. On the teacher's signal, he passes the ball to the players in a circle in turn in a clockwise direction, and they pass it back to him. The game ends when the captain receives the ball from the last player. The team that finishes the game first wins.

Option 2. After all the players have received the ball and hand it over to the captain, one of them changes roles with him. The team that wins is the one in which all the players have time to complete the task before the rivals.

Passed - sit down.

On a signal from the teacher, the captain passes the ball to the first player. He, having caught the ball, returns it to the captain and assumes a crouching position. The captain catches the ball, passes it to the second player, and so on. The team that completes the task before the rivals wins (see Fig. 2).

Fig. 2

Tackle with dribbling.

Option 1. Players take the balls, disperse around the hall and start dribbling. One of them is appointed as the driver, who tries to knock one of the players. The salted player then becomes the driver.

The game can be played in pairs.

Option 2. The exercise becomes more complicated: the driver tries, without hitting another player, to knock the ball out of him.

Relay with dribbling.

Players line up in a column of 3. On a signal, the first numbers begin to dribble, bypassing the flags, and, returning back, pass the ball to the next players. The team that finishes the relay first wins (see Fig. 3).

Fig. 3

Dribbling and throwing relay.

On signal, the first numbers dribble the ball to the opposite rings, take two steps and throw the ball into the ring, then pass the ball to the next players and stand at the end of the column. The relay race ends when one of the teams within 2-3 minutes. throw as many balls as possible into the ring. After that, the number of hits is counted, and the teams change rings: column No. 3 goes to ring No. 7, column No. 2 to ring No. 8, and column No. 1 to ring No. 2. Teams change places 2 times. The team that scores the most hits wins (see Fig. 4).

Fig. 4

Scorers.

On a signal, the players perform throws into the ring, recording the number of hits. After 1.5-2 minutes. on a signal, they change rings counterclockwise. The team that scores the most hits wins (see Fig. 5).

Fig. 5

Fight for the ball.

Two teams participate. The players of the team that has taken possession of the ball must make 10 passes to each other, and their opponents try to interfere with them and, having taken possession of the ball, try in turn to make 10 passes to each other. For every 10 passes successfully completed, the team receives 1 point. The game is played according to the rules of basketball.

Variants:
a) playing with the ball,
b) playing without the ball.

Relay with dribbling and passing the ball.

Players line up in a column of 3 at a distance of 2-3 m from each other. The first player has the ball. On a signal, he turns around and passes the ball to the second participant, the second to the third, and so on. The latter, having received the ball, begins to dribble, circles each player of his team with a snake and stands at the head of the column. The team is thus moved one player back. The relay ends when the first player leads the column again. The team that finishes the exercise first wins.

Point.

2 or more players participate. If a player (a team member or the first number) hit the ring from a certain point, then all other players must hit the ring from the same place. If the player next in line misses, then he receives a penalty point, and the next thrower can change the throwing point, etc. After receiving 5 penalty points, the student is eliminated from the game.

Ball for the captain.

Two teams play according to the rules of basketball, but instead of throws on the ring, the participants pass the ball to their captains located in the free throw zones.

Options:

a) ball dribbling;
b) play without dribbling.

Sniper.

Several players with balls take part in the game. The goal is to hit the ring as often as possible from behind the 6-meter line within 1-3 minutes.

Sunshine.

Players must hit the ring with each of the 7 dots. When hit from point number 1, you need to move to point number 2, etc. (See Fig. 6).

Fig. 6

Look!

On a signal, the first player passes the ball to the second, that to the third, and so on. until the last one, who again returns the ball to the first player. After that, the game starts over. As the game is mastered, its pace and the number of balls increase (see Fig. 7).

Basketball in grades 4-11. Teaching ball handling skills.

• Ball in the palm of the outstretched right hand. Double-sided fishing - palm, back of the hand. The same, with the other hand.
• Throwing the ball from hand to hand (palms up).
• Rotation of the ball around the neck, torso, legs.
• "Eight". I. p. wide leg stance apart. Passing the ball from hand to hand between the legs, draw the "eight".
• Hip Cotton. Tossing the ball over you and catching it after slapping your thighs.
• Ricochet. I. p. wide leg stance apart, the ball in the hands in front. With both hands we hit the ball on the floor so as to catch it from behind (to catch the ball from behind, hit the floor must be done in the area of ​​​​the heels). Then, holding it behind the back, we also hit the ball on the floor in the area of ​​​​the heels and catch it in front.
• Arch. I. p. the ball in the hands behind the back. Throw the ball up over your head and catch it from the front with both hands in front of your chest.
• Cradle. I. p. wide leg stance apart, hold the ball between the legs: right hand in front, left behind behind the legs. Change the position of the hands, trying not to drop the ball.
• Leg swing. I. p. main stance, ball in right hand. Swing with the right foot, passing the ball from the right hand to the left hand under the foot; swing with the left foot, the ball from the left hand to the right under the foot. Dribbling the ball around the leg.
• I. p. wide leg stance apart, dribbling with figure eight.
• Dribbling around the legs.

In basketball, dribbling is an important technique, without which it is impossible to imagine a full-fledged, tactically competent game. Already in the first lessons of teaching basketball, I form the idea among students that dribbling is the movement of a player with continuously following each other pushes the ball on the floor with one or alternately with two hands. From lesson to lesson, schoolchildren are convinced that the main thing in the technique of dribbling is the lack of visual control, asynchronous work of the arms and legs, the equivalence of dribbling with the right and left hands, high speed of movement, rational position of the hand on the ball, active movement of the arm in the elbow joint. The existing varieties of dribbling - high and low - allow the player to move with the ball around the court at different speeds and in any direction. With this technique, you can get away from a tightly guarded opponent, go under the basket, perform a throw on the move, transfer the ball from the backcourt to the frontcourt, take the ball away from the crowd of players, change places for attack, stretch the defense.

I start learning to dribble from the 4th grade, in subsequent grades the execution of the technique is improved and consolidated by increasing the speed and changing the direction of movement, alternately dribbling the ball with the right and left hands. In grade 9, according to the school curriculum, students must master the skill of dribbling when approaching an opponent.

I conduct ball dribbling training according to the following method. As you know, first the player's stance is studied, then the movements - running, jumping, stopping, stepping, turning. I begin to teach dribbling directly with preparatory exercises - one-time hits of the ball on the floor. Then I suggest that students combine these techniques with taking a stance and moving with an added step back and forth, right and left. After that, we apply reusable blows on the floor with the right, left hand, first standing still, then running in place and with small movements in different directions and with different heights of the ball rebound. Improving their dribbling skills, students perform movement with dribbling in a straight line, as well as in an arc and a circle for various distances, varying the places where the ball hits the floor, depending on the nature and pace of movement. Gradually, students switch to dribbling after catching it in motion. The study of conducting when approaching an opponent is completed. In parallel with teaching new material, there is an improvement and consolidation of the previously studied motor skills of leading. I have been using this gradual expansion of my playing skill for five years now, using the methodological techniques, exercises I developed, as well as outdoor games to improve ball dribbling. Exercises and games diversify basketball lessons, make them more emotional, increase the density of classes. I pay the most attention to dribbling without visual control. At the initial stage of learning to lead, I recommend that students bring the free hand with an edge to the nose. In this case, with a straight head position, the student does not see the ball, and peripheral vision is also excluded. Both standing still and moving, they use this lead with their eyes closed.

Exemplary game tasks and outdoor games for dribbling the ball in motion.

Dribble Cross. The exercise is performed while running at an average pace, duration - 2-3 minutes. During the exercise, the teacher gives a signal for low or high dribble, with or without visual control. The dribble is carried out around the basketball court or diagonally, in arcs. Cross-country has the following stages: lead by running, side steps with the right, then left side, back forward, jumps, in a full squat, lead with diagonal acceleration, with a turn of 360 °, with jerks and stops on a signal. All game tasks are performed with the right, then with the left hand, alternately with the right and left with different rebound heights.

"Brownian (random) motion". Up to 40 low racks are placed throughout the gym in random places. The class is divided into 2-3 teams, each with no more than 10 players. Teams are given 1 minute each, during which the players, while dribbling the ball, must go around as many racks as possible, making a circle around each. The number of racks bypassed by all team members are summed up, thus, the winning team is revealed. Individual competitions are also possible. It is necessary to dribble the ball for the whole minute, it is impossible to take the ball in both hands. Leading is carried out with one or alternately with the right and left hand. The height of the ball bounce is regulated by the teacher's signal. If in grades 4-6, dribbling is performed with any hand, regardless of the position of the racks, then in the senior classes, dribbling is carried out with the far hand from the racks, as if simulating the dribbling when approaching an opponent.

The games used in the lessons to improve ball dribbling have proven themselves well.

"Fifteen with dribbling". Two players, moving in the same direction around the post or the third player standing in the center of the circle and dribbling the ball with the far hand from the opponent, try to hit each other with their free hand on the shoulder and not lose the ball. Players are allowed, in order to avoid tagging, to take away the free hand of the opponent with their hand. The one who managed to touch the opponent's shoulder and not lose the right to dribble gets 1 point. In case of loss of control over the ball, 1 point is awarded to the opponent and the player who made a mistake changes places with a partner standing in a circle.
Variation: without interrupting the dribble, everyone tries to take the ball away from the opponent.

Watchman. The game involves two people, each with a ball. Player 1 (watchman), dribbling the ball, protects the flag placed on the floor behind him. The "watchman" is allowed to take steps with one foot, the other (supporting) is 25-30 cm from the flag. The task of player 2 is to touch the flag with his free hand without stopping the dribbling, which, according to the conditions of the game, brings him 1 point. At a predetermined score, the players change roles.
Variant: the watchman, while dribbling the ball around a hoop lying on the floor, prevents player 2's ball from getting into the hoop. He, too, using the dribbling, tries to deceive the watchman and send the ball into the hoop. The watchman is allowed to hit the ball with his free hand.

"Sharp Eye". The class is divided into three teams, which line up in columns one at a time. There is a hoop in front of each team at the start line. At 10 - 15 m from it, 5 multi-colored flags are installed: red, black, white, green, blue. At 5 m from the line of flags, another line is drawn parallel to it - for the movement of the teacher, who has 5 flags of the same color in his hands. On a signal, the first team numbers begin to dribble around the hoop, constantly watching the teacher, who quickly moves in different directions along his line. As soon as the teacher raises one of the flags he has, the first numbers of the teams, without stopping dribbling, must run to their flags, take one of them of the desired color and, dribbling the ball, quickly return to their team. The participant who did not make a mistake, took the necessary flag, and returned to the start line the fastest, brings his team 3 points, the second one - 2 and the third one - 1 point. In case of errors, points are not awarded. Then the second numbers come into play, and so on. The team with the most points wins.

"Leading after the transfer". The class is divided into pairs. Partners stand 5 meters apart. The first player passes the ball to the second. The second immediately transfers the ball to dribble, dribbling the ball, runs to the first, circles it and returns to his place with the dribble, after which he passes to the first. The exercise is repeated several times.

"Raise the ball." In pairs, the positions of the partners are the same as in the previous game. On a signal, the first number, dribbling the ball, runs up to the second and, stopping, quickly transfers the ball from high to low dribbling until the ball stops completely. Then, leaving the ball at the partner's feet, he runs back to his place. The second player with frequent brush strokes on the ball transfers the ball to the dribble and then repeats the actions of the first.

"Repeat the leader." The game is played in pairs, each pair has one ball. The player with the ball stands behind the player without the ball. At the command of the teacher, the player without the ball begins to move freely around the hall, making sharp accelerations, stops, changing the direction of movement. The partner with the ball must, while driving the ball, repeat all the movements of the leader and hold on to him as tightly as possible.

"Around the partner". In pairs, the distance between partners is 2 meters. At the signal of the teacher, the student without the ball begins to slowly move forward with side steps, and his partner dribbles the ball around him. After one lap around the gym, the players change roles.

"Snake". The players are built in two columns, the distance between students is 2 meters. The players of the first column have balls. At the signal of the teacher, the second column of players without balls begins to slowly move around the hall. The students of the first column dribble the ball in a "snake" run between the walking students of the second column. After two laps, the columns change places.

Option: distance between students - 4 m; a column of students with balls moves with dribbling both along the second column and towards it. I evaluate the ball dribbling skill not when performing this technique in isolation, but when students pass an obstacle course that is close to the game environment. I also use the obstacle course for the comprehensive improvement of this game action. On the obstacle course, it is possible to simulate all kinds of situations during the dribbling that can occur directly in the game. Thus, the obstacle course becomes, as it were, an intermediate link between the improvement of individual techniques with dribbling and their implementation in training and control matches. The obstacle course allows you to: objectively evaluate the technique of conducting; to improve gaming skills in activities as close as possible to the game; train students' motor memory; clearly identify errors in dribbling technique and find productive ways to eliminate them. As a rule, I use an obstacle course starting from the 6th grade. In grades 4-5, I include only some of its elements in classes. Improving and evaluating the technique of conducting is in the form of combined relay races, but not for speed, but for the technique of performing tricks. From class to class, relay races become more difficult. If in grades 7-8 I set a mark for dribbling based on the number of mistakes made, then in 9-10 classes, in addition to the mistakes made, I also take into account the time for passing the obstacle course. The approximate content and location of individual elements of the obstacle course for dribbling for students in grades 9-10 in a sports hall 9 x 18 m are shown in the figure.

Example stages of an obstacle course.

• Catching the ball with both hands after a long pass. The countdown starts as soon as the player's hands touch the ball.
• Stroke with a hand that is comfortable for the player, 6 posts, standing 1 meter apart.
  Stroke 5 racks, located 2-3 meters apart, with the hand farthest from the rack.
• Standing still dribbling the ball with a comfortable hand in a figure eight between two low (50 cm) posts. Distance between posts – 0.5 m.
• Dribbling along the corridor between two gymnastic benches located at a distance of 45 cm. Then catching the ball with one hand with a flip to dribble in a circle with the far hand from the center of the circle. This part of the exercise is performed with both the right and left hand. Leading is carried out without visual control.
• While dribbling, hitting 5 hoops lying on the floor at a distance of 1.5–2 meters from each other (3 hoops are located in a straight line, the last 2 hoops form an isosceles triangle with the third one).
• Dribbling with a comfortable hand by hitting the ball from the right and left sides from three gymnastic sticks placed halfway in one line (in grades 4-5, alternately with the right and left hands)
• Dribbling with the right and hand around the supporting left leg, then with the left hand around the supporting right leg (turns to the left, then to the right).
• After dribbling, two steps followed by a throw into the basket (the stopwatch is stopped at the moment when the ball leaves the hands).

Getting ready to play basketball

The purpose of game tasks and relay races: mastering the elements of basketball, training the ability to distribute attention, developing accuracy and speed of movements. The choice of tasks is determined by the conditions, number and state of health of the participants. Games can be played in pairs, teams, everyone can participate in them, including adults.

• Players stand in columns 3 meters from the wall. The guides, after throwing with one hand from the shoulder into the wall, run to the end of their column. The second number catches the bouncing ball and repeats the action of the first, and so on. The column that finishes the exercise first and makes the fewest mistakes wins.
• The player stands facing the corner of the hall at a distance of 3–4 m from both walls and throws the ball in any way first one wall then the other for 20 seconds. The one who manages to throw the ball more times in the specified time wins.
• Two players stand 4-6 paces apart, each holding a ball. On a signal, they throw the balls up (about 3 m) and, changing places, catch them without rebounding from the floor.
• Ball held behind the back. On a signal, the players throw it over their heads and catch it in front of them. The winner is the one who does the exercise 10 times faster without the ball falling.
