One of the biggest differences is the expectations of each game.
On the boy's side, contact is usually expected and the coaches seem to get on their players for making bad plays.
On the girl's side, if the girl breathes on the ball handler, then the coach cannot understand why there is not a foul.
No one is surprised if a guy falls on his behind. If a girl does it, they think she is going to die if she falls down.
That might sound bad but the expectations of the sexes are still very different. I do not like girl's basketball not because of their ability to play. I do not like girl's basketball because of the expectations of those that play it and the coaches and fans that are involved in.
Peace
