Resumen
The aim of this study was to determine the free throw technique and successful free throw technique both prior
to ball release and at ball release moments in under-12 basketball, using a court-applied test. The participants were 102 players
from eight male under-12 officially federated basketball teams. We used a point/ideographic/multidimensional observational
design to analyse the recordings of 612 free throws. The test consisted of performing one, two or three free throws. One
participant performed the free throws and the other passed the ball to him. The roles were exchanged until the two participants
performed all the free throw options. As a result, the participants did not execute the free throw using the technique proposed
by the literature. This difference was because jumping free throws shoots, with low style, feet at the same distance, and
moderate forward displacement of the centre of mass predominated. The free throw technique was in general more regular
than that ...
