    "Know it and show it"- so true! I love basketball, and even though I'm only 5'2'' or 5'3'', I'm not half bad at it; I tell everybody that it's because I visualize my shots. It really does help to believe that you will get the ball into the basket! 5*

    Free throws, along with many other shots, are much easier to pull off at the basketball hoop where you practice. The familiarity makes it easier to judge the distance to the basket. So if you are having trouble beating a friend at school, challenge him/her to play on your field, and victory will be a lot more achievable.

    Some people are jumping while taking a free throw shot. It's a bad habit because: 1. It means you don't do it right. When shooting correctly there is no need for jumping. 2. It's harder to aim while in the air. Shooting from the ground is a lot easier.

    One thing I do is develop a routine. You do this every time you go to the line. I dribble three times, spin the ball backwards, then shoot! It helps take you mind off everything else!

    If you shoot with your right hand, put your right foot on the center of the free throw line and vice versa. Doing this will allow your ball to go in the direction you want it to go. This gives you more accuracy.

    Every net and ball is different. Example; If you have a more bouncy ball, then arch your shot a little, most of the time a bouncier ball is a lighter ball. Another example, if the height of the net is shorter than what you usually play with, then don't use too much power.
