Basketball is played everywhere: in specialized halls, on equipped outdoor or near-home playgrounds.

But professional tournaments still take place in the halls on an absolutely even surface that prevents injuries, which a basketball player can get during the game. Tournament basketball courts have several important components, one of which is the parameters of the playing space.

What is a basketball court and what does it look like

The basketball playing field is rectangle with lines which are applied with either white or yellow paint. The field can be located both indoors (indoor area) and outdoors. On street playgrounds, if they are equipped specifically for basketball games, artificial turf is laid or games are played on asphalt. Some amateur basketball fields are turfed.

The size of the basketball court varies: they are standard, suitable for official competitions, and amateur. Tournament grounds are sized 28 x 15 m, amateur should not exceed the sizes 30 x 18 m. Covered area ceiling height - from 7 meters (in some cases about 12). Lighting is adjusted in such a way that the luminescence does not interfere with the players and referees, but the entire field is evenly covered.

Reference. To end 60s basketball games were played mainly open air. Now tournaments are held only in specialized halls. The exception is streetball (street basketball).

The site is lined with markings indicating certain zones and equipped with two racks with shields and baskets (ring and mesh), which are located on both sides of the playing field. On his scheme, as a rule, the size is indicated in length and width, the opponents' zones, where they indicate the ring, the central circle, the front, side, three-point, center lines, and the face-off lines.

What are the sizes of playgrounds and sports halls for playing basketball

There are several types of basketball courts.

public use

Fields for amateur games can have standard parameters ( 28 x 15 m) or slightly different in size.

So, school and university sites - 12-15 m wide and 21-28 m in length.

Parameters of the playing area for mini-basketball ( for children under 12 years old) — 17 x 12 m.

A streetball field is half the size of a basketball field. 15 x 14 m or even 14 x 9 m.

Attention! Most public spaces have options 26 x 14 m, but the length should not exceed 30 m, and the width is 18 m.

For official tournaments

Such fields are subject to the strict requirements of the association. The main conditions are the parameters of the playing area and coverage. Standard sizes - 28 x 15 m. In the halls at professional tournaments, coverage checked for chips and bulges. Since basketball players move quite quickly across the field, coating defects can lead to serious injuries: bruises, sprains, fractures.

Playing field required should be rectangular in shape with clear markings well lit from all sides. The marking is applied with paint of the same color (white or yellow) and has a width not less than 50 mm.

Components of the playing field

In the basketball court, there are several zones separated by lines.

Central circle and general scheme

It is located in the middle of the playing area. From here the ball begins to be played between the opposing teams. As a rule, the circle is only highlighted, but not painted. If it is colored, it must match the color of the restricted areas.

Three-Point Zone

Highlights the location where the player throws from. A successful throw from outside the zone bounded by this arc brings the team exactly three points.

Reference. Three-point line appeared in 1979-1984, and was taken first NBA, then NCAA, And in 1984 - FIBA.

Free throw zone

Together with the front contours, they designate the so-called restricted areas (painted in the same shade as the central circle), which extend towards the playing area of ​​the field and represent semicircles with a radius of 180 cm. The midpoints of the restricted areas are in the center of the free throw lines.

markup

There must be markings on the basketball field.

These include: facial, lateral, central and central circle. The side and front contours outline a rectangle along the perimeter of the field, highlighting the playing area.

Lateral lines form long sides of the rectangle, and the facial ones are short.

The central line delimits the field into two equal zones and is drawn through the middle of the side contours, protruding 15 cm outside each of them.

The central circle is located in the middle of the site relative to the boundary lines. His radius 180 cm(measurements are made to the outer edge of the circle).

Throw lines

This: three-point zone, free throw lines, shooting area.

Three-point zones are measured from the three-point arc to the center of the opponent's basket. There are standards for designating these zones: according to the NBA regulations, this distance 7.24 m, according to FIBA ​​rules - 6.75 m, in the NCAA league - 6.32 meters.

The free throw line has in length 360 cm and is parallel to each end line. By regulation, the edge of the free throw contour must be at a distance of 580 cm from the inner edge of the front line, and the middle - on an imaginary straight line connecting the midpoints of the two front lines.

Throwing area - zone from which basketball players take free kicks throws.

According to the regulations, the zones of the benches of substitutes are limited to lines from 2 meters and are located on the same side as the scorer's desk, but not less than 1 meter from the audience seats. Bench areas can be both square and rectangular.

Supports and shields, as components on which the marking of the field depends

The layout of the playing area and the dimensions of the basketball court itself directly depend on the basketball posts. The supports of the structures, on which the shields and baskets are attached, have 2 meters from the end lines. The color of the supports should stand out. As a rule, they are painted in colors that contrast with the walls and the site itself.

Approximately up to the height 2-2.15 meters supports are covered with protective material. Shields are made tempered safety glass(transparent) or from trees a (white), thick at least 3 cm.

  • durability and all-weather;
  • excellent water permeability;
  • lack of seams, which makes the site homogeneous;
