  • The Value Point System
    THE VALUE POINT SYSTEM This system, which incorporates several key statistics like points, rebounds, assists, and recoveries, is based on a formula that assesses player and team performance with a more well-rounded approach than other common forms of evaluation. With THE VALUE POINT SYSTEM, a playerʼs and/or teamʼs overall performance and make recommendations on where improvement should be made on the systemʼs formula and scale. Along with its many other benefits, THE VALUE POINT SYSTEM also encouraging the aspect of “team play”. Often, players that are excellent one-on-one players are not very good team players; a problem that creates a lot of trouble when trying to develop an effective team strategy. By emphasizing statistics like assists, charges and turnovers, players are trained to focus on working as a team, and therefore boost their abilities and become better basketball players on a better basketball TEAM. THE VALUE POINT SYSTEM Formula and Scale THE VALUE POINT SYSTEM is based upon a carefully calculated formula. The system utilizes the most pertinent player and/or team statistics to provide a more accurate evaluation of the player or teamʼs performance. Statistics Needed to Calculate Value Points When calculating THE VALUE POINTS of your players or team, the following statistics are necessary. Total Points: A player or teamʼs total points, including free throws. Rebounds: A player or teamʼs total rebounds, both offensive and defensive. Assists: A player or teamʼs total number of passes that directly led to a basket. Steals: The total number of times a player or team takes the ball from an opposing team.

    25 Misunderstood Rules in High School Basketball 1. There is no 3-second count between the release of a shot and the control of a rebound, at which time a new count starts. 2. A player can go out of bounds, and return inbounds and be the first to touch the ball l! Comment: This is not the NFL. You can be the first to touch a ball if you were out of bounds. 3. There is no such thing as “over the back”. There must be contact resulting in advantage/disadvantage. Do not put a tall player at a disadvantage merely for being tall 4. “Reaching” is not a foul. There must be contact and the player with the ball must have been placed at a disadvantage. 5. A player can always recover his/her fumbled ball; a fumble is not a dribble, and any steps taken during recovery are not traveling, regardless of progress made and/or advantage gained! (Running while fumbling is not traveling!) Comment: You can fumble a pass, recover it and legally begin a dribble. This is not a double dribble. If the player bats the ball to the floor in a controlling fashion, picks the ball up, then begins to dribble, you now have a violation. 6. It is not possible for a player to travel while dribbling. 7. A high dribble is always legal provided the dribbler’s hand stays on top of the ball, and the ball does not come to rest in the dribblers’ hand. Comment: The key is whether or not the ball is at rest in the hand.

    SPORTS HIGHLIGHTS Squash Team Finishes as National Runner-up Although the Yellowjackets came heart- breakingly short of claiming their first squash national championship, the 2015– 16 season was marked by historic mile- stones in arguably the best season ever for the program. At the top of the list was a victory over defending national champion Trinity Col- lege in the semifinals of the College Squash Association’s Potter Cup. That win knocked Trinity out of the ti- tle game for the first time in 19 years and guaranteed that the Yellowjackets would finish above their previous national best of third in 2009. In the championship match against Yale University, the Yellowjackets battled from behind to force a 4–4 tie with only one point left to be decided. In the final set, Tomotaka Endo ’18 lost to Yale’s Kah Wah Cheong, sending the championship to New Haven.

    The Unseen Play the Game to Win 03/22/2017 Play the Game to Win What Rick Barry and the Atlanta Falcons can teach us about risk management “Something about the crowd transforms the way you think” – Malcolm Gladwell - Revisionist History With 4:45 remaining in Super Bowl LI, Matt Ryan, the Atlanta Falcons quarterback, threw a pass to Julio Jones who made an amazing catch. The play did not stand out because of the way the ball was thrown or the agility that Jones employed to make the catch, but due to the fact that the catch eas- ily put the Falcons in field goal range very late in the game. That reception should have been the play of the game, but it was not. Instead, Tom Brady walked off the field with the MVP trophy and the Patriots celebrated yet another Super Bowl victory. NBA basketball hall of famer Rick Barry shot close to 90% from the free throw line. What made him memorable was not just his free throw percentage or his hard fought play, but the way he shot the ball underhanded, “granny-style”, when taking free throws. Every basketball player, coach and fan clearly understands that the goal of a basketball game is to score the most points and win. Rick Bar- ry, however, was one of the very few that understood it does not matter how you win but most im- portantly if you win. The Atlanta Falcons crucial mistake and Rick Barry’s “granny” shooting style offer stark illustrations about how human beings guard their egos and at times do imprudent things in order to be viewed favorably by their peers and the public.

As students are reading Fadeaway, have them note an example of characters telling each kind of lie, and why they think the character told that kind of lie. (See chart at the end of this guide.) • When Kolt starts telling his part of the story, he says he and Jake “were from the same part of town – the wrong part” (7). What might he have meant by this? Based on what you have read so far, what do you think the wrong part of this town is? What kinds of assumptions do people make upon hearing a statement like this? • At the start of the book, there are several characters who give statements to the police.

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.

  • Proper Inflation of a Basketball by Josephine Corcoran and Ralph Rackstraw Revised by Alan Stockton for Astronomy 110 Abstract T
    Proper Inflation of a Basketball by Josephine Corcoran and Ralph Rackstraw Revised by Alan Stockton for Astronomy 110 Abstract This paper describes an experiment to determine how to correctly inflate a basketball using a hand pump. A basketball is correctly inflated when it rebounds to approximately 60% of the height from which it is dropped. In this experiment, the basketball's rebound height is measured as a function of the number of strokes of the pump used to inflate it. We find that for the pump used in this experiment, 12 strokes gives the correct pressure in the basketball. We discuss the effects that the air temperature and the material from which the ball is made have on the accuracy of our results. Introduction Basketball is a game that relies on the skill of dribblingthat is, walking or running while bouncing the basketball on the floor. To play the game most effectively, players need to be able to rely on the rebounding of the ball off the floor as they move with it around the court. The "springiness" of the ball also affects shots that rebound off the backboard. The amount that the ball rebounds depends on how much air is used to inflate it. A ball with too little air is flat and difficult to dribble. A ball with too much air is too lively and more difficult to control when dribbling and shooting. Inflating a basketball with the correct amount of air is important to being able to play the game well. According to international basketball rules, a basketball is properly inflated "such that when it is dropped onto the playing surface from a height of about 1.80 m measured from the bottom of the ball, it will rebound to a height, measured to the top of the ball, of not less than about 1.2 m nor more than about 1.4 m” (Fédération Internationale de Basketball 1998).
