    I want to play
    Hi! I am 24 years old, and my dream has always been to play basketball. I am not sure I am good enough to play in the wnba, and I am not eligible for college basketball because I already have a bachelor degree, and now I am preparing a master degree.
    I really want to know if there is a way I could make it, evan though it would be in europe...
    Thank you for your help!

    Practice
    HI Maybe you can try to get on one of the practice team at a local college and enhance your game. A friend of mine did that for 2 years and ended up playing in europe for 3 years. It worth a try. GOOD LUCK

    There is still a chance

    MY RESPONSE:
    Jaheim makes a good point. Getting on a college practice team is a great way to measure your skills, but that's only a beginning.

    If your height is below average or average, you might want to try getting on the practice team of a Division 2 or Division 3 college instead of Division 1. If your height is above average and your skills excellent, you can go for a division 1 college practice team. When your skills are where you feel good about them, move up to Division 1, or contact the staff of a few WNBA teams and ask if they have "minor-league" or "farm-teams". That's your next step. Then, if you're good enough, they'll pull you up to the WNBA. If not, try Europe, but don't give up with one "farm-team"; try several.

    Take it in small steps. Make the steps challenging, yet attainable.
