Opponents when being guarded
frequently will get behind the
player guarding them and ma.
neuver from side to side while thu
ball is at the other end of the
court. As the guard should al
ways keep the man ard the ball
in sight on defense. the best way
To do SO in this situation is to use
an arm to locate the player YOU
are guarding. Just reach back and
touch him with either hand while
keeping your eve on the ball. In
that way the guard can face the
direction in which the ball is he
ing passed about and at the same
time note the position of h's
opponent.
The upper illustration shows the
correct vaI OF doing this. in the
lower illustration IS pictured n
guard in similar position not
using his hands to locate his
opponent. He canEot guard him
closely as a result.

WHATS wrong with these pic
" lures: Here are three. and
each one represents something
wrong in basket ball.
If you've been close student OF
basket ball this Winter you should
pick out the faults in a few minutes
study.
Check them over now. before you
go any further. Then read:
BY SAM BARRY.
Basket Ball Coach. University of iowa.
In catching a ba sket ball the fingers
should slant either downward or up
ward, depending on the height of the
pass. The force of the pass is taken
by the heel of the hand and then
sripped by the fingers. The arms
should give a little when the bah hits
the hand, to avoid fighting the ball.
You can readily see If a player stuck
his fingers straight out, with his arms
stiff. he would make a lot of fumbles.
