The USA Women's 3x3 Teams are two of the teams under the auspices of the USA Basketball organization. In 2007, FIBA decided to start championships for the 3x3 event (also called three-on-three), starting in 2010. Two events are held, one for athletes under 18 years of age and one open event. The under 18 event (U18) is held every year, although in every fourth year, starting with 2010, the event is part of the Youth Olympic Games. The open events are held every other year, in even-numbered years, starting in 2012. ==Rules== The game includes many elements of the traditional five on five game with some exceptions: The rules listed below are the current 3x3 rules, which have changed several times since the creation of the game.〔 * Half-court—The game is played at a single basket, or one end of a two basket court. The game is typically played outdoors, except when weather conditions require the game to move indoors. * Team size—a team consists of four players, only three of which are on the playing court at one time. A team can play with two players, but must start a game with three players able to play. * Initial possession—coin flip; winner of the flip can choose to take possession at the start of the game, or at the start of a potential overtime * Time—10 minutes. The clock runs continuously, except for timeouts. * End of game—a game is over if one team scores 21 (or more) points, or at the end of regulation time if not tied * * In the original rules, when the scoring was different (see "Scoring" entry), the game ended at 33 points. This was reflected in the original name of 3x3, "FIBA 33". * Overtime—first team to score two points wins. * Timeouts—One 30-second timeout * Shot clock—12 seconds * Scoring—baskets count for one point, except those beyond the arc which are worth two points. Foul shots are worth a single point. * * In the original rules, scoring was identical to that of the full-court game. * Possession change—after a score, a steal or defensive rebound, team must dribble or pass the ball outside the arc. * Held ball—no alternating possession rule or jump ball; the defensive team is always awarded possession. * Free throws—One free throw on all personal fouls, except two free throws in the following situations: * * If fouled during an unsuccessful shot attempt from behind the arc. * * Opponent has committed 7 or more team fouls in the game. Team fouls 10 and greater are treated as technical fouls (see immediately below). * * Technical or unsportsmanlike fouls, after which the non-fouling team receives possession of the ball. * Foul limit—no limit on personal fouls per player, seven per team. A player who commits two unsportsmanlike fouls is disqualified. * Substitution procedure—player leaves the court, crossing the end line opposite the basket, and makes physical contact with the substitute. No action by table officials is required. For rules not specifically covered in the 3x3 rule list, the FIBA rules for five on five apply.〔 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「USA Women's 3x3 Teams」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
