Women's basketball
Okay kiddo, do you know what basketball is? It's a game where you try to get a ball into a basket by throwing or bouncing the ball. Women's basketball is just like regular basketball, but it's played by girls and women.
The game starts with a "jump ball" where one player from each team tries to grab the ball as it's thrown in the air. Then each team takes turns trying to score points by throwing the ball into a hoop, which is 10 feet high.
The team with the ball tries to move it down the court (which is basically a big rectangular area) by passing it to each other and running with it. The other team tries to stop them by trying to steal the ball or get in the way.
There are some rules to keep things fair, like you can't move while holding onto the ball and you can't push or hit other players.
In women's basketball, there are some differences compared to men's basketball. For example, the ball is a little bit smaller and the hoop is a little bit lower. But overall, the game is the same and it's just as exciting to watch!
