Should you send your kids to basketball lessons?
Basketball is one of those sports that kids can learn from an early age with smaller balls and adjustable hoops. You can even send them to special basketball lessons with age-appropriate rules from 3-4 years old. This helps them develop their motor skills by not only learning proper technique but also working as a team. Basketball also develops muscles, flexibility, speed, endurance, and teamwork.
What ball should you use?
The size of the ball depends on the player's age and gender.Size 1: Ages 3 and up
Size 3: Girls and boys aged 4 to 6 years
Size 5: Boys aged 7 to 11 years / Girls aged 7 to 13 years
Size 6: Boys aged 12 to 13 years / Girls/Women aged 14 and up
Size 7: Boys/Men aged 14 and up
If you want a very durable ball, choose a rubber ball. If you want a ball with a good feel, you need leather or synthetic.
What hoop height should you choose?
The official height of a basketball hoop is 3.05 m (rim height). If you want a basketball hoop for your child, you need something that will grow with them. For younger children, there is no official height, so you can choose whatever suits them best.
Up to the age of 10, club hoops are set at 2.60 m. After the age of 10, both girls and boys play with 3.05-meter hoops.
