Is it possible to query a mySQL db via Terminal

Normally I use phpMyAdmin via Chrome to UPDATE or INSERT in my online db which is hosted by GoDaddy. But I now want to do some edits & queries while using Terminal with Zsh on a Mac running Sonoma.

If I do an UPDATE or INSERT like below, all is fine and it works. There is no response in Terminal and none is needed.

"UPDATE `club` SET `facilityID` = '123' WHERE `club`.`id` = '789'";
or
"INSERT INTO `danceData`.`club` (id,name) VALUES ('789','John')";

But I now need to query data from the remote database. If I was using phpMyAdmin I would do the following and see my result.

"SELECT facilityID FROM `club` WHERE `club`.`id` LIKE 'HUNTPOUT1'";

But when I use the SELECT in Terminal, there is no response of what the data is in the field 'facilityID'.

What do I need to do to get a return of data to Terminal?

Is it possible to just use Terminal and get a response or is it mandatory that I use a mySQL client?
