Color choices
This defender reaches upward beside the hoop as another player releases a shot. Try contrasting jersey colors for each player so the shooter stands apart from the defender. Color the basketball in warm orange with dark seams, and give the backboard and rim a cool metal shade. The bleachers along the gym wall behind can take muted, varied tones.
Compare player uniforms and hoop
Color the players’ uniforms first, then use a contrasting palette for the basketball and the hoop’s net.
Before you print
Defender Reaching Upward Beside Basketball Hoop Coloring Page has about 175 separate areas to color, a medium level of detail. Crayons work for the larger shapes, and colored pencils or fine markers help in the smaller spaces.
The PDF fills one US Letter page. On A4 paper, choose “Fit to page” so the frame stays inside the margins, and print one test copy before making a class set.
