Basketball is a fast moving game that can be played on both indoor and outdoor courts.
The object of the game is to score points by making fields goals or free throw shots. The length of time that the game is played varies, depending on the age of the players, but most youth games are made up of four six-minute quarters. At the beginning of a basketball game, both teams send five players each onto the court. The game begins with a jump ball at center court. Each team tries to recover the ball and move it toward their designated basketball net.
