    number of individuals to play in the "official" game of basketball. Basketball may also be played
    without a court, and it can be a great way to work out while enhancing your hand-eye
    coordination and fundamental motor skills. With all of these benefits, basketball is a great sport
    to introduce to your kids when they are still very young. Your children shouldn't be restricted to
    waiting until they are old enough to try out for the school basketball team. Team. Basketball
