4. I never saw it other than on TV. My small NE Iowa town didn't have girls basketball.

The rules were so silly. At any given time, six of the twelve players just stood around, unable to cross into the forecourt. Two dribbles max, and every team seemed to have a designated scorer like Denise Long or Fonda Dix, which meant that six girl basketball was effectively four girl basketball since two of the forwards did very little.

I much prefer the real game, which the young ladies have proved with a vengeance that they are not too delicate to play.
