Find your basketball trainer in Hepburn

Basketball rests on seven foundational skills that unlock the rest of the game.

• Ball handling: keeping control of the ball at different speeds and directions.
• Passing and catching: delivering the ball accurately to a teammate in the right spot.
• Layups: finishing close to the basket and scoring from mid-range.
• Footwork, pivoting and defence: positioning the body to move, protect the ball and stop opponents.

With guided practice, these seven skills quickly become second nature.

Long before dribbling existed, Naismith's rule 1 set the tone for how basketball would be played.

• The first rule allowed players to throw the ball in any direction, with one or both hands.
• At the time, dribbling did not exist yet, so passing was the only way to move the ball.
• The rule pushed players to move and support each other instead of holding onto the ball.
• Modern rules like travelling and dribbling grew directly out of this original idea.

Learning the "why" behind the rules builds a deeper understanding of basketball strategy.
