#but if you're looking for team sports and team sport strategy 3x3 and rugby 7s are the shortest games

I've been meaning to get into women's sports but I don't really watch TV/ videos in general, so id like something lasting less than football or basketball. Which sport would you recommend?

American football is the worst sport for being a 4 hour long broadcast for a 1 hr game.

Soccer football is like... 2 hrs - 2.5 hrs for a 90+ minute game.

Basketball is about a 1.5 hour broadcast for a 40 minute game. The extra broadcasting time is for the quarter breaks, the half-time show, the commercials, and the fouling. The youtube angels who upload games cut out commercial breaks, so the uploads are closer to an hour.

Usually basketball is the sport I recommend for short attention spans. It's the fastest paced sport and you get to rest your attention every few minutes.

But if I can't sell you on 40 minutes of 5x5 basketball, how about 10 minutes of 3x3? 3x3 basketball ends at 10 minutes or 21 points, whichever comes first. Most games take 20 minutes or less to watch. (This gold medal match is a 40 minute video because there's a 20 minute medal ceremony after the game lol. you can skip that) Almost all 3x3 play is international tournaments through FIBA. There's no 3x3 league. But the USA doesn't dominate 3x3 the way they do in 5x5. So the competition is closer.

And if I can interest you in a few more minutes than 10... how about a 14 minute game? Rugby 7s is two seven minute halves. It takes less than 30 minutes to watch a 7s game. Again, this is the gold medal match so there's a 30 minute ceremony at the end.
