Reporter Patrick Reincke was covering the sports event at a local elementary school in New South Whales when he came up with the idea with a parent from the school.
As he said the final words of his report, Reincke threw the ball over his shoulder and into the net, off the backboard.
Reincke told Reuters that the ball went in on his first attempt, and that “the pressure was on” with many of the kids, some of the parents and a couple of staff members were watching him at the time.
