Women’s Basketball

Women’s basketball is a competitive team sport played primarily by female athletes, following the same basic rules and principles as men’s basketball. The game involves two teams, typically composed of five players each, who aim to score points by shooting a ball through the opposing team’s hoop. Women’s basketball has its own organized competitions, including professional leagues, collegiate tournaments, and international events such as the FIBA Women’s Basketball World Cup and the Olympic Games. The sport has grown significantly in popularity and visibility since its inception, with increasing support at various levels, from grassroots to elite. Women’s basketball promotes teamwork, athleticism, and skill development while providing opportunities for women to compete and excel in sports.
