I think you stay in the US. Don't be shame, I live in the US too and I am glad that we have one more person finds this game interested. \n\nDimensions \nThe field of play must be rectangular. The length of the touch line must be greater than the length of the goal line. \n\nLength: minimum 90 m (100 yds), maximum 120 m (130 yds) Width: minimum 45 m (50 yds), maximum 90 m (100 yds) \n\n\nInternational Matches \nLength: minimum 100 m (110 yds), maximum 110 m (120 yds) Width: minimum 64 m (70 yds), maximum 75 m (80 yds) \n\nThe half circle is penalty arc and really does not serve anything.

It's 10 feet. \n\nThe women's basketball is one inch smaller in diameter than the men's.\n\nEdit:\n\nI was incorrect. The ball is an inch smaller in circumference.

The free throw lane is 12 feet wide and 15 feet long. The distance from the free throw line to the three-point line is 4 feet 9 inches long. The bottom block to the baseline is 4 feet. The center circle's diameter is 12 feet, which is where they have the jump ball to start the game.\n\nThe distance to the three point arc has changed twice in the history of basketball. In the 1979-1980 season the three-point arc was moved back to its original 23’ 9", while the college range is 19’ 9", and the international distance is 20’ 6".

Players have to be 10 yards from the ball for free kicks. This arc is for penalty kicks and is 10 yards from the penalty mark. For small-sided games for the younger kids, the idea is the same though the distance is shorter.

Well rim is 10' off the ground, do the math!\nOh, and take into account that you have to palm the ball, so subtract about 10" or so from your pathetic little 7'6" reach, and there ya go.

This season the WNBA will introduce three new rules that are sure to affect the style, productivity and speed of the game. \nThe three-point line will be moved from 19' 9" to the international distance of 20' 6¼", and the lane will be widened from 12' to the NBA width of 16'. In addition, the 30-second shot clock will be reset to 20 seconds (as opposed to 30 seconds under the previous rule) when a defensive foul or other defensive violation occurs with less than 20 seconds remaining on the shot clock, and will be left unchanged when a defensive violation occurs with 20 seconds or more remaining on the shot clock.

A couple of season ago, the NBA played around with the idea of reducing the three point arc.  During the season, players who didn't normally take threes were taking them.  \n\nThe following season, the reverted back to the old distance.  \n\nPersonally, I found it a bit too far when I tried to shoot in an NBA regulation court.  But since the distance is the same from the corners, I had no problem knocking those down from there.\n\nHope this was helpful.

The rim is at 10 feet. \nThe arena itself will vary from court to court. The average will be about 40 feet for the lighting trusses, the top beams will be about ten feet higher for a typical arena.
