I recommend a little movie on Amazon called "New Providence" about an almost century old tradition in Iowa of 6 on 6 girl's basketball.
Interesting game: 3 play offense and 3 play defense for each team at one time. The 3 for each team not engaged wait at half court for a change of possession. Offensive players are only allowed 2 dribbles before either shooting or passing. The game has a quick tempo. The ball is literally rushed to half court for change of possession, even by the officials. Scores were in the 90's routinely.\[
The story depicts the last season that the sport was played, 1994. Mothers, daughters, grandmothers played this game and it was a vital part of the community in small town Iowa.
I'm really curious whether any of the Iowa or Iowa State players have any history in this game. Without much dribbling, the offensive play involves much cutting, shooting, and savvy maneuvering around the bucket.
Check it out! Thoughts from anyone.
