1. History of Basketball

2. Creation In early December 1891, Dr. James Naismith , a physical education professor and instructor at the International Young Men’s Christian Association Training School (YMCA) (today, Springfield College) in Springfield, Massachusetts, USA, was trying to keep his gym class active on a rainy day. Sought a vigorous indoor game during long New England winters Rejecting other ideas and wrote basic rules and nailed a peach basket onto a 10-foot (3.0) m elevated track

3. Basketball was originally played with a soccer ball. The first balls made specifically for basketball were brown, and it was only in the late 1950s that Tony Hinkle, searching for a ball that would be more visible to players and spectators alike, introduced the orange ball that is now in common use. Paul D. “Tony” Hinkle was inducted into the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame as a contributor in 1965.

4. The peach baskets were used until 1906 when they were finally replaced by metal hoops with backboards. A further change was soon made, so the ball merely passed through. Whenever a person got the ball in the basket, his team would gain a point. Whichever team got the most points won the game. The baskets were originally nailed to the mezzanine balcony of the playing court, but this proved impractical when spectators on the balcony began to interfere with shots. The backboard was introduced to prevent this interference. The game called before as “Naismith’s Game” was later on called as “Basketball.”
