Rebounding means to put the ball back in if it misses. Say your teamate shoots the ball and it bounces off the rim or doesn't make it in. If you were to be standing there, you could attempt to put it back in the basket, which is called a rebound. Once it gets into the basket, you can no longer rebound.

What is a team rebound in basketball?

A team rebound is awarded when no individual secures the rebound of a missed shot. The statistic has little meaning -- its existence is primarily to ensure that the total number of rebounds equals the total number of missed shots, despite the fact that some shots don't have what one would normally consider a rebound. Some examples: * The offensive team gets a team rebound when one of its players misses a shot at the buzzer. * The defense gets a team rebound when a missed shot goes out of bounds without touching a player, and when the last free throw attempt in a sequence misses the rim. * Either team can get credit for a team rebound when a missed shot goes out of bounds off a member of the other team.

The offensive team is credited with a "team rebound" No individual player gets credit for a rebound but the offensive team is credited with a "team rebound." A team rebound is also given following a missed shot, if a personal foul is called before the rebound can be grabbed. It is also given to the defensive team if the ball goes out of bounds after a shot without anyone touching it, or to the team getting the ball if it glances off another player and out of bounds. Also the defensive team gets a team rebound if a shooter misses the rim entirely on the last free throw attempt in a sequence.

Why is a follow through important in basketball?

It is Important to follow through in netball because even the best shooter in the world still occasionally misses and if you miss you need to be there ready to get the rebound. If you manage to get the rebound you have an extra chance to score a goal. However if you didn't follow the ball after you shot, and you missed and the other team got the ball then they could score an extra point instead of you. If you manage to get the rebound every time you miss a goal and score from the rebound you will end up with a high score. Hope you find this helpful
