a tip off. Typically the ref throws the ball in the air between two centers and the centers try to get the ball. Then who ever wins the ball gets to go first. Then the team that didn't win the tip off, gets the ball in the beginning of the 2 and 3rd quarter and the team who won the tip off get it in the 1st and last quarter.
