The results suggest that state-level Australian male basketball competition might involve a greater dribbling workload than female competition, while female match play may impose larger running demands relative to live playing time. Contrarily, the relative intermittent, shuffling and sprinting demands encountered during state-level Australian basketball competition appear similar across genders.
