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
Step 1
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.
Step 2
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.
Step 3
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. Then, trace around the smaller rectangle with a red pen in the centre. Then, stick the card to the cardboard. Stick the net to the backboard using super tacky glue. Lastly, stick the backboard and net to a wall using sticky tac and have fun playing your very own miniature basketball game.
