What is the difference between basketball and netball?

Basketball and netball are similar, but the team numbers, rules, and equipment are different. Basketball has ten players, players can dribble and run with the ball, and the ball and basket are larger. Netball has seven players, players are not allowed to dribble or run with the ball, and the ball and basket are slightly smaller. Netball was originally developed as a women's sport although modern-day men now play netball as well.
