Talking Points

• "Dribbling is like bouncing the ball while you move. It helps you keep control of the ball during the game."
• "Shooting is how you score points in basketball. Remember to aim for the back of the rim for better accuracy."
• "Passing is when you throw the ball to a teammate. It's important to pass accurately so your teammate can catch the ball easily."
• "Playing 1-on-1 helps you practice your skills in a game-like situation. Remember to have fun and try different moves!"
