Heading: Dribbling     Sub Heading: Definition

"A dribble starts when a player, having gained control of a live ball on the court throws, taps, rolls or bounces it on the court and touches it again before it touches another player.

During a dribble the player may not place any part of the hand under the ball and carry it from one point to another or bring the ball to a pause and then continue to dribble.

During a dribble the ball may be thrown into the air provided the ball touches the court or another player before the player who threw it touches it again with the hand.

There is no limit to the number of steps a player may take when the ball is not in contact with the hand.

A dribble ends when the player touches the ball with both hands simultaneously or permits the ball to come to rest in one or both hands."
