  • Team Handball Study Guide
    MIDDLE SCHOOL PE TEAM HANDBALL STUDY GUIDE Although popular throughout much of the world, team handball is just starting in the United States. The sport uses natural athletic skills such as running, jumping, throwing and catching to provide action for the game. Spectators describe team handball as soccer with your hands, but they also notice things that remind them of basketball, water polo and ice hockey. Team handball is one of the world’s fastest team games. Two sides of seven players, including the goalie, play it. The object is to score the most goals by throwing the ball into the opponent’s goal and attackers pass or dribble the ball with their hands until a shooting opportunity is created. When a team loses possession of the ball, that team goes on defense. HOW A GAME STARTS: A Throw-off is taken from half-court. Every player must be in his/her own half of the field and opponents must be 10 feet from the thrower until the ball is thrown. MOVING THE BALL: Passing the ball is the best way to move the ball. A player may also dribble the ball as is done in basketball. A player may take only 3 steps while holding the ball. He/she may then dribble the ball, stop dribbling, and take 3 more steps. Once a player stops moving, he/she has 3 seconds to throw the ball. He/she may dribble the ball once with one hand while running. A player may bounce or roll the ball to another player. A player may roll the ball with one hand along the ground.

  • Basketball Rules
    Basketball Rules 1. Each team consists of five players. Basketball is played by two teams. The purpose of each team is to throw the ball into it’s own basket and to prevent the other team from scoring. 2. A goal is made when a live ball enters the basket from above and passes through. A goal from the field counts 2 points for the team into whose basket the ball is thrown. A goal from a free throw attempt is credited to the thrower and counts 1 point for his or her team. A goal made from beyond the 3-point arc counts 3 points . 3. Jump Ball – This play takes place in the center of the court to start the game. The referee tosses the ball up between two opposing players. Players try to out-jump each other and tap the ball to a teammate. 4. Violation – Minor rule infraction such as: • Traveling – taking more than one step before passing or dribbling the ball. • Stepping out of bounds. • Throwing the ball out of bounds. • Double Dribble – dribbling, stopping the dribble, and starting the dribble again; dribbling the ball with both hands for more than one dribble. • 3 Seconds – offensive player with or without the ball may not be in the lane for more than 3 seconds. • Over and Back – once the ball has crossed over the center line, the offense may not go back over it. • Palming the Ball – permitting the ball to come to rest in one hand while dribbling. * On a violation the other team gains possession of the ball on the sideline or baseline.

This association was created 82 years ago by visionaries and developed by indi- viduals unified by a common mission. Of course, the world has changed over time and to disre- gard the current economy would be fatal. This is undoubtedly the major challenge for the coming years. Addressing it will require men and women who, without losing sight of our founding princi- ples, can also provide new solutions. The required solidarity in a world defined by inequalities is the vital spark igniting FIBA’s humanist work.

  • The Economic and Legal Aspects of Transfers of Players
    KEA – CDES: Study on the economic and legal aspects of transfers of players The Economic and Legal Aspects of Transfers of Players JANUARY 2013 KEA – CDES: Study on the economic and legal aspects of transfers of players KEA – CDES: Study on the economic and legal aspects of transfers of players KEA – CDES: Study on the economic and legal aspects of transfers of players EXECUTIVE SUMMARY I. Transfer of Players in Sport Professional transfers are regulated by a complex set of regulations established by sports governing bodies. Rules are subject to a large degree of standardisation at international level through international sports institutions such as FIFA for football and FIBA for basketball. The justification for international standardisation stems from the ambition to make competition rules universal in order to promote international sporting exchanges. The extensive autonomy granted to sporting bodies for the self-regulation of their activities is a fundamental characteristic of sport as compared to other economic and social activities. The transfer environment is subject to different layers of rules and regulations. The study aims to document the different layers of rules and to consider their interactions. Transfer rules in sport are a derogation from normal employment practices in the following ways: i) They limit the freedom of players to move from one employer to another and set restrictive conditions for such moves. Contracts may be terminated by either party without consequences (such as sporting sanctions) only if justified by “just cause”1; ii) They establish a system of transfer fees between clubs in order to prevent a total ban on players’ mobility.
