Top Tip
Instead of using sticky tac to stick the backboard to the wall, you can also attach string or ribbon for hanging.
How to Make
- To start, paint the polystyrene ball using orange acrylic paint.
- When the paint has dried, draw basketball markings on the ball with a black deco pen.
- For the net, cut out the bottom of a paper cup.
- Next, cover the paper cup cover in diagonal lines using a black deco pen.
- Stick the net to the paper cup.
- Using the template, draw and cut out the large rectangle from cardboard and white card, the paper cup covering from white card and the smaller, rounded rectangle.
- For the basketball backboard, colour the edge of the white, rounded rectangle with a red pen.
- Trace around the smaller rectangle with a red pen in the centre.
- Stick the card to the cardboard. Stick the net to the backboard using super tacky glue.
- To finish, stick the backboard and net to a wall using sticky tac and have fun playing your very own miniature basketball game.
