    no.....as long as your able to run there shouldn't be a problem from trying out. she need's to know how to play the sport....and be able to make some hoops but other than that don't worry about what people will think,cause as long as you believe in yourself nothing should go wrong! =) if you need to say or ask anything elts just write me back or email me at brittney013@yahoo.com

    Sure you can play basketball and be overweight. Tell your friend she must warm up before playing. It's a great idea that she wants to be active. She'll probably get interested in other activities and maybe will want to know more about nutrition which will help her with the overweight situation.
