Basketball has a backboard for the ball to bounce off. Netball
hoops just have a hoop no backboard. You have to be very acurate.
Also in netball the diameter of the rings is 3 inches smaller.
A goal is a term generally used in sports such as soccer,
Lacrosse, hockey, and other sports. In basketball, it is referred
to as a hoop, and you score points not goals.
