With only three fully professional Womens basketball leagues in Asia, Iran is seeking to develop a strong competitive league someday, now that it has gained admission to the FIBA Asian Womens Basketball Association. The Iranian, national team made it to the Semi- finals at the Western Asian Basketball Association (W.A.B.A.) Championship Series in 2008, and has been developing a number of under 18 female teams that should provide an ample supply of talent for not only the national team, but for teams that will hopefully participate in the Iranian, and Asian Leagues in the future. So as their junior league players grow and develop the future of Iranian Womens Basketball looks very bright. As that future develops I plan to report more on Iranian Womens Basketball. 10-24-09 one would have to wonder with superb women basketball players like Arnineh Petrousian and Azadeh Zamanpour when will the government give these women adequate practice facilities, financial sponsorship, pay for coaches and players and last but not least world coverage. The Iranian men demonstrated their championship abilities by winning the mens Asian championship. so now let Iranian women become true professionals and not pretenders. The information black -out by the government should be lifted so these women can be a source of pride and national honor a woman has been added to the countries Cabinet so why not allow women sports to be acknowledged also internationally ?
