Basketball Protocol & Etiquette
During Practice
When shooting baskets in a group where there are more players than balls, those without balls wait under the basket to rebound missed shots and move on to take the ball and attempt their own shot. If, however, the shooter makes the shot, he/she is entitled to keep the ball, and it is the duty of the person waiting to send the ball back to the successful shooter.
At Competition
When a player is injured on the floor, all players stop movement and kneel on one knee until the injured athlete is moved off the court or resumes play.
