The woman in basket-ball

The woman basketball begin in the winter in 1892 at Smith College. Senda Berenson was the instructors for woman basketball. They were risk of teaching basket-ball for girls back in the day because  she will worried about the'' nervous fatigue''that mean if game was to hard or to much for them. So therefore back in the day they will modified the rules , by divided the court into three and instead of having five player playing they will play nine.

Since then the woman basketball had interact over the  years. In 1970's they were notice from the International Olympic Committee  which by the way made Woman basket-ball the official sports for the olympic game in 1976.

The woman basketball had their failed moment when it came too updating in school and in college because people wil have remarque and  lack of discrimination of sex. But in 1982 the woman basket -ball was sponsors from the National Collegiate Athletic Association and later on the NBA founded the WNBA in 1996.  


The WNBA  '' Woman National Basketball Association'' had their first season in June 21st 1997. The league started of with eight team. Also to include into that the WNBA had television deals with ESPN ,NBC and Lifetime Television Network . 

To end it off the sport so call basket-ball is not only a men sports but also a woman sports, and am glad that  we has woman proove  that woman could do anything that  a men could do.
