Six-on-six basketball or basquette is a largely archaic variant of women's basketball. It is played with the same rules as regular basketball, with the following exceptions: #Teams have six players each instead of five; three "forwards" and three "guards". #Only forwards are allowed to shoot the ball. Forwards must stay in their teams' frontcourt (the side of the court they shoot from) and guards must stay in their team's backcourt. For example, Team A's forwards would be on the left side of the court with Team B's guards on defense. Team B's forwards are on the right side of the court with Team A's guards. Thus, forwards play only offense and guards play only defense. #In some forms, unlimited dribbling is not allowed. Once in possession of the ball, players may dribble the ball up to two times; at that point, the player must shoot (if a forward) or pass to a teammate. Both forwards and guards may handle the ball. Today, nearly all women's basketball leagues (pro, college, and high school) play by the same basic five-on-five rules (size of the ball and the distance of the three-point line are two of the few differences). In the United States, the last major sanctioning bodies to abandon the six-on-six variant were the high school state athletic organizations of Iowa and Oklahoma. ==Last six-on-six games played== Beginning in 1958 the Office of Civil Rights started looking at banning six-on-six high school girls basketball.〔Evans, Murray. - "Looking Back on Oklahoma/Sept. 27". - ''The Oklahoman''. - September 27, 1988.〕 It would take 37 years to phase it out. *1978: Texas〔Richards, Joey. - "Half-court press: A history of girls hoops". - ''Galveston County Daily News''. - February 27, 2005.〕 *1993: Iowa〔DeSimone, Bonnie. - "Iowa girls bid adieu to tradition - Six-on-six to become just a memory" - ''USA Today''. - March 10, 1993.〕 *1995: Oklahoma〔Canning, Whit. - "DEEP-SIXED - Tournament in Oklahoma is swan song for traditional half-court girls basketball". - ''Fort Worth Star-Telegram''. - March 12, 1995.〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Six-on-six basketball」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
