standard FIBA court is 28m x 15m. Not sure if this still applies but the old rule said that you could use a smaller court in the following ratios - 26m x 14m or 24m x 13m.
From memory, a standard FIBA court was 26m long up to 1984. That's why we have the Sydney and Bankstown ABA teams still playing on shorter, narrower courts. Taking a 3-pointer from the corners certainly requires careful foot placement :)

2.For the main official competitions of FIBA (see 'Official Game Procedures', Section E), the dimensions shall be 28 m in length by 15 m in width, measured from the inside edge of the boundary line.
3.For all other events, the appropriate entity of FIBA, such as the Zone Commission in the case of Zone or continental competitions, or the National Federation for all domestic competitions, has the authority to approve existing playing courts with dimensions which fall within the following limits : minus 4 m on the length and minus 2 m on the width, provided that the variations are proportional to each other.

Once we've got the court size down pat can someone let the Knox Womens SEABL Team where the ring and backboards should be located.
They could use some help after the performance on the weekend.
